Winter Wonderland Diorama

Hi everyone Jennifer here today. I don't know about you but I remember when I was a kid we made "di0ramas" at school as projects.  I have had this little box kicking around for a while, it is an old package from Prima flowers.  I knew one day it would come in handy.  I dug it out when I though I would make a little Winter Wonderland scene.

First off I cut a piece of paper to fit the back, it was the sun image from the Beautiful Daydreams paper.  I then put a circle of Spellbinders bling around the sun. 


I then stamped 6 snowman images on paper and cut them out leaving an extra bit of paper below the snowman to make a stand. 



I then cut out some pieces of green paper from the backside of the Live in Colour paper.  I shaped them into a bows of a tree and pop dotted them together.  On top I added some Ranger Enamel Accents as snow on top.  I added a blue bling star to the top.



On the back side of the clear part of the box I dotted it with the same Enamel Accents to resemble snow.  Then I added glitter to them.   On the front I stamped the sentiment "Let it Snow" from Susan K Weckesser Unity Stamp set, Itty Bitty Snowman. 




I pieced everything together layering the snowmen and tree to the back ground.  I folded the bottom on each snowman and glued them to the box.  Some of the snowmen I cut short so they looked like they sunk in the snow.  Around the snowmen I tucked batting (from sewing) in between to make it look like snow. 





To finish it off, I tied a bow around the whole thing. 



What a cute little diorama, that snowman melts my heart. 

Not sure where in my house this will grace but I am sure I will find a special spot.

Thanks for coming by to look, hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday season, Best Wishes to all!!!

Jennifer
