Just wanted to share these super cute Spellbinder Charming Cottage die House Warming Favors that I made for my sons House Warming Party. These little boxes are just darling and were the perfect party touch. My son purchased the cutest little house and these were perfect.
Craft Cardstock was used for the main color. White, black and gold trim really compliment the kraft. Everyone loved these tiny house. It's a great die to have in your stash. Hope you enjoyed my project share today. Until next time friends, Happy Crafting!!!
Hello friends and crafters. I am pleased to announce that I am the guest designer over at the Loaded Envelopes Galore and More for the month of April. Please come and check us out here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/LoadedEnvelopeOriginal/ These houses measure 7" high, 5" wide, and 3-1/4" deep and perfect for "loading". Gosh so much you can do with these. I can imagine putting some cookies inside to bring to a new neighbor for a welcoming present. Or how about bringing one of these houses loaded with candles inside as a hostess gift. Wouldn't this be cute to present at a house warming, or how about a bridal shower with Bath and Body Works products inside. Your imagination is the limit.
Here is the tutorial for putting one of these together. All you need is a Score Board and a Paper Cutter and you can create a house. How fun is that!!!
Your window dies in your stash are going to work on this house as you have a lot of real estate. If you don't have any, I show you how to make the windows and window boxes as shown on the "Red" house. Wouldn't this be great with your recipients last name on the house like as shown on the "Bakery". Wow, they would proudly display that in their home!!!
The roof on this house was done with a Martha Stewart Punch.
The house was created with a Sizzix Tim Holtz Embossing Folder that looks like Bricks. I used distress inks on white paper to achieve this look.
This is the back of the house. The fence is a die from my stash, but I know there is a Martha Stewart punch that does a fence as well. The tulips are from an Elizabeth Craft Designs die and so are the tiny flowers in the window boxes. You could use a tiny punch from your stash for those as well.
Thank you for stopping by to view my project. I will be back tomorrow with close up pictures of the Bakery. I will also take pictures of the embellishments that I loaded my doll house with to show you how much you can stuff in there!!!! Until next time, Happy Crafting!!!!
