But hurry the offer wont be about forever.....
Today I am sharing with you the biggest project of the year , I had wanted to make this windmill for ages but was dithering about the decoration. We have been so spoilt this year over at Polkadoodles with Nikky's lovely new collections and when Winnie Winterland & Baked with love were released I knew exactly what I wanted to use.
I was a bit nervy as it looked very complicated , but big girls knickers pulled up , talking softly to my portrait telling him he is going to have his work cut out (haha cut out!)
This project took me over three days to complete, It is definatly not to be rushed
I downloaded the Windmill File - I read through the instructions whoaaaa not as hard as I first imagined!
I made a couple of alterations as the original the bottom opens (where you can hide a gift - very clever)
But I wanted mine more of a decoration so I ommitted that part and mine stands flat
These are the links to the cutting files from lovely Sandra that I have used
Windmill
Santas Sack - Sleigh
Ski's & Sledge- Winterset
The windmill is built in 3 main pieces that you then fit together, It really is good fun building each piece and then seeing it all come alive at the end.
I made the main structures using Kraft card so it would be nice and sturdy
I so loved decorating it up, I tried making each piece as special as I could
I used fluffy stuff for snow on the fences, ski's and sled
When my project was complete I gave it a sprinkling of flower soft
How cute is the little door - if you look carefully it even has a little door mat
I dressed the windows with Lace & Ribbons
