I have FINISHED the house I am soo happy with how it turned out (going to find it hard to part with it) What i did was did some pen work on the roof to make tiles, added some stick on crystals around the roof to look like lights. I then glued the house to the matt board
OH hang on..............................What is that I see there ??
There in the big window (OH it is a BLUEROBOT ) Did i put that there?
And that comes to the end of this adventure in turning the Haunted house from "happy haunting" cart into an non haunted house.

I have really enjoyed making this house. (sad that is has come to an end) Would love to hear what you think if you have the time
For the house today I knew I had to have a Father Christmas somewhere on the house but I could not get right (after three times) Then i thought I would use design studio and paper dolls cart and design just the bottom 1/2 of him
Out of red card stock I cut 16 full legs with boots Using black copic markers i coloured the boots
Glued all the full ones on top of each other And cut 9 red with out the boots Gluing 4 together and then gluing the other 5 together
Now i took a white gell pen and coloured the fur of the suit
making sure i went all round including the edges
To the back I added the stack of 4 trousers
Then to the front I added the stack of 5 trousers
This gave it a bit of shape I then went around the edges with copics so as it was the same colour
Added some liquid glaze to the boots all sides and let dry each side before doing others
BE SURE to come back tomorrow to see the COMPLETE HOUSE

Today I made a tree for the inside of the house (even though the windows are small it still needed this inside ) I made the tree using snowflakes from the "when it is cold out side" cartridge
Cut the flakes going down by 1/8" each time biggest being 2 5/8"
Then using padded tape i layered the snowflakes
Offsetting them each time
kept layering till they were all on
But then decided that it was to short
So I cut 4 more of the big flake and added them to the bottom of the tree
Now it was taking shape
Cut a star for the top Using 3 of these folded in half I glued the to form a 3D star
Added cotton wool for the tinsel
I then cut a box from the box cartridge
Made the box and added it to the bottom of the tree
Then with my hands i shaped the flakes (branches ) downwards to give the tree shape
