CHRISTMAS TREES with CUTAWAY WINTER SCENES - NEW IMAGE SET - VIDEO TUTORIAL


If you are looking for a Christmas project that is on a larger scale, this might be it.  In 2016, I made my first Christmas tree with a cutaway revealing a lighted winter scene.  I decided to revisit the project, create two more trees, and make a video tutorial.

I thought a series of these trees would look lovely arranged on a fireplace mantel paired with my Jeweled Trees from a previous project (see a link to the project below).  These would also be lovely for a table centerpiece.  Each tree features a different color scheme, decorative embellishments, and the house inside.

As an extra touch, they are lighted (battery operated), giving off a soft glow.
Like many of my projects, I use various chipboard kits from AlphaStamps to create houses inside the trees.  In the video tutorial below, I cover how to construct the trees and the supplies I used.  Except for a few items from my stash and the papers for the original tree, AlphaStamps is carrying everything else I used.
