It's that Funkie part of the fortnight! The challenge at
Frilly & Funkie is being hosted by Rebecca Deeprose of
Paper Primrose , and she wants to see
"A Light in the Darkness". Create with 'light' in mind. Think candles, bulbs, lanterns, menorahs, stars, and all things that brighten this time of year, using whatever type of project you'd like. We can't wait to see what you 'enlighten' us with! And, if you need a little bright inspiration, please visit the other Design Team's blogs.

For my "Lighted Christmas Village Table Centerpiece" I decided to combine this Light challenge with all of
Linda's Funkie Junkie 12 Days of Christmas Tag Challenges, sponsored by the
Funkie Junkie Boutique, and this is a very heavy photo laden post, so you might want to grab a beverage and snack to sustain your energy! I used as much as her color scheme and products as possible for each house and building for my inspiration, and the numbers correlate to each of her tags.
As is usually the case the pictures do not due this justice. I am beyond thrilled with how this came out, and I will continue adding to it...like cars, foliage, and a few more details.
***EDIT*** There have been a bunch of questions on this, so to answer a few...
The houses and buildings are each made from at least 2 pieces of Wendy's Residence Art Parts, and Tim's Artful Dwellings Sizzix Bigz Die using Grunge Board and Grunge Paper. They are mounted on two 1 inch thick wood pieces measuring 30 inches long, and the widest one at 6 inches wide, with the thinnest at 3 inches. I painted the wood gold first, then gave it a white crackle finish, followed by crystal knob feet at 5 different points, and Idea-ology corners finished it off. The candles are just tea lights hidden between the largest Idea-ology Woodland Bottlebrush trees.

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
...OMGosh Anita, this is just stunning, absolutely stunning!!!...an incredible amount of work, thought, technique & imagination has gone into this beautiful line up of cards, your one helluva clever inspring lady, LOVE LOVE LOVE it...Mel :)
ReplyDeleteDid you start making this LAST Christmas???? There are no words to describe how amazingly gorgeous I think it is Incredible.
ReplyDeleteHello Anita.
ReplyDeleteWell I do not know where to begin... this is an amazing centre-piece that is decorative and exquisite and every visitor to your house will want to have a closer look, so I hope you are prepared for the many compliments that will be coming your way for the duration that this project is on show! It is so aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
You should be thrilled with how it has come together, as it is definitely a unique way to illustrate the 12 days of Christmas, your little town has a wintry festive feel, that I would imagine is how one views a typical Christmas in certain states of the USA, you have certainly covered every element that represents the season, right down to the patriotic Stars and Stripes! And of course you have added a little funkiness as well. I applaud you for this imaginative creation you have constructed, perhaps I should start singing 'O come let us adore Anita'... or perhaps not!
This has turned into a lengthy and protracted comment, but I wanted to make sure I related a narrative that would explicate how I am enchanted and captivated by your artistic talent.
Smiles:)
Sue
Amazing detail, simply stunning concept, and a piece that will grace your home for years to come - so beautiful and inspiring xx
ReplyDeleteWow Anita what a truly eye catching mouth watering centre piece (have you secured your houses to a piece of wood so they stand). The work that has gone into this is amazing, such fantastic attention to detail. Every little house/church/school is so unique. This is one piece to treasure for years to come. I love it, such an enchanted piece, I could not stop looking. Thanks so much for showing this beauty over at Simon Says Stamp and Show, thank you. Tracy x
ReplyDeleteWow, what a cool Christmas display you have created, I feel so envious of those friends & family that will be seeing it for real!
ReplyDeleteI confess that my little chalet in the snow will not have space for such a display but I do have some cute snowmen to share when I get there.
Sally

ReplyDeleteThis will be a major talking point for every one who visits. It must have taken you many, many hours to complete, with all the great detail and work you've put into this project. It's no wonder you're proud of this.
I can imagine Santa will be visiting this village for sure!
Goodness me that was a labour of love and it looks well worth it too!
ReplyDeleteOh my giddy aunt as we say over here, this is incredible Anita and I'm absolutely blown away by your talent sweetie! How absolutely wonderful this is going to look in your home Christmas after Christmas, it's divine!
ReplyDeleteI'm just making something with the Tim's house dies for the Simon Says challenge this week..............I think I need to think it out again :D. Have a lovely evening and thanks so much for popping by earlier, I really appreciated your comment. Hugs, Chris :)
Wow! I am speechless...this is beyond stunning. How creative and gorgeous! I love your take on the 12 tags! Why do I never dream up pieces like this?? I bet they are even more stunning in person.
ReplyDeleteI'm reeling - you know that feeling when you fall in love at first sight?! Having grown up with dollshouses, any miniature scene is likely to capture my heart, and when you combine it with the amazing inspiration of Linda's 12 tags, and then you LIGHT IT UP... well, I'm a goner! Utterly captivating - you're out on your own with this one - hope it wins everywhere!!!
ReplyDeleteAlison xxx
Oh this is utterly glorious. Houses will always get my vote anyway(it's my dollshouses that butterfly has grown up with) but this execution is simply brilliant. I have always wanted a Christmas Village - this one would be just perfect!
ReplyDeleteAs butterfly says, it deserves to sweep the board....and I hope it does.
I don't have words to describe how wonderful I think this is. It is about the most amazing piece of mixed media artwork I have ever seen. Every tiny bit is so wonderful. And to think its a takeoff on the 12 tags challenge. Who would of ever thought of making something like this with the tag themes. Totally brilliant! You rocked the world with this masterpiece. Thanks so much for playing along with the 12 tags challenge.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Linda
Ohhhhh Anita! This is incredible! You've build a whole city! It's amazing! I'm speechless! So much details and so much to see! Love it! Thank you so much for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show! Hugs, Sandra

ReplyDeleteOk. I'm speechless too! Anita, do you even realise how talented you are?? I certainly hope you do!!! I am utterly utterly blown away by this beautiful, wondrous masterpiece. It (and you) are absolutely magical and I genuinely love it. You brought tears to my eyes as I looked at these photos - in the sort of way that I would have cried as an overwhelmed child at Christmas and the wonder of it all. I hope that everyone who views your project cherishes it and you. Thank-you for inspiration. Big hug, Nicola x

ReplyDeleteSomehow that comment went through twice, however, I did want to come back and ask if you mind if I take my next Sleigh Ride along here? I'd need one photo and just link back to your blog. This is just a wonderful centerpiece! I'll also be featuring some houses from my FB page, slightly different though.

Howdy doody chica, this is one of those times I want to be miniature and live in a perfect little Christmas village. It's difficult to see in type, but I'm standing on my chair and giving you an ovation of accolades and praise.

Un-freakin-believable! This is such an amazing piece of art. I cannot believe how creative and talented you are. Each house is a joy to behold but when it's put altogether words seem inadequate. It may take a village to raise a child but it truly does take an artist to raise a village :)
ReplyDeleteI am speechless! This takes my breath away. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful art.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations at SSS - your houses are just amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am still catching up on e-mails sent before Christmas (I took a week to visit my youngest son and his wife and their new twins in CA) and came across your amazing village.

Happy New Year to you and yours!
