Gnome Home in a Dome - a shake up

 That title is quite a mouth full!

But the title does explain everything about this card.  I placed the image of the Gnome home in a dome which is turn  became a shaker.



The Snow Globe Scenes dies were used to create the aperture for the Dome in the Heart Warming Hugs DSP as well as the 2 layers of the Dome stand.
After the aperture was die cut, a light pencil mark was drawn around the circle onto the Whisper White layer below.  This is where the Gnome house would be built (sorry, stamped)
To support the house in the dome, a 2 layered base was added under the dome.  The top layer is die cut in Crumb Cake; the bottom layer in Early Espresso.


The Gnome and sentiment are stamped on a separate piece of Whisper White card stock.  After colouring with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut.
The Gnome house was also coloured with blends, with the background sponged with Balmy Seafoam Spray ink
After the Gnome house was finished, a plastic dome was adhered through the aperture from the wrong side of the DSP - dome first.  Tiny snowflake shaker elements were added before the globe was adhered to the Whisper White layer below.
To complete the dome home, the layered base was adhered below the dome and a gold trim bow added at the base.
To finish the card I added some glittery snowflakes left over from another project

The Gnome was adhered to the right and above the dome base using dimensionals.  The edges of the sentiment were sponged with Soft Suede , matted with Soft Suede card stock and added below the dome using dimentionals.
Two snowflakes left over from another project were added to the upper right corner and the the left of the base
