Design Team:

This is my this week project and this time I used the WINDOW SILL SHAPED CARD SET....TEMPLATE - CUTTING FILE from our sponsor: The Cutting Cafe




 



I really love to be in my house, it´s one of my favorites places, so for me it´s really "home sweet home". Also Christmas is my favorite season. In my project, I mixed both, using 3d House Set  cutting file provided by our sponsor.



My House. I love houses with gardens and many flowers.
The cutting file is used 3D HOUSE SET sponsor CUTTING THE COFFEE, thanks.


 This time I made a tall house from the 3d houses set from our wonderful Sponsor The Cutting Cafe, and used the wreath and one of the sentiments, and one of the trees from the set for a Christmas tree. This house is the opening version, the roof opens so I can fill it with treats or a gift for Christmas.

On the back I added a Christmas Sentiment Shape tag which I inked with red on the bottom of the stocking, I love this verse.

Do you like my snow? It is Flowersoft Polar White, the only Flowersoft I own. The ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons a long time ago, they have lots of gingham ribbon still.





For this occasion I would like to remember that feeling back home, the window illuminated by a candle , which invited into the home. I put the card in a Guaria Morada, the beautiful national flower of my country, which decorate many of the houses and is prized for its beauty.

GUEST DESIGNER

MARTHA

Martha made such a cute little house full of love using the 3d Houses file set, look at those roof tiles. We love it Martha!



DESIGN TEAM:




For me the perfect house is full of windows, light and air, so for my project I choose "Window Sill Shaped Card" cutting files, provided by our generous sponsor.






 For my project I made a WINDOW SILL SHAPED with many colorful flowers, thanks to our sponsor THE CUTTING CAFE





To my project I used 3D House Set. 
I made  a little house of dreams, full of flowers and some details with pink crystals representing small candies, such as sweet  should be a home .

For this week, I chose the 3D House file, from our amazing sponsor The Cutting Cafe. Come to my blog for more detail.

Cazzy will be along later - once she has mastered her new machine! Well that took a little longer than I hoped, but here I am!
Here it is at last, and probably could be better but not bad for a start. I made the smallest house from 3d Houses, and didn't make it open. I've added mosaic for the path, little flowers and dots of pink Liquid Pearls. I added lace round the box base and ric rac to the house.

Side view....

...back view with "gravel" path. the ric rac isn't quite right, looks worse now I see the photo!
