Here is my "Home for the Holidays" house shaped Christmas ATC. I cut out the house template and traced the template onto both of the 3" x 4" pieces included in the kit. You can pick which side you would like for the inside or the outside of your house. I chose the holly side for my outside. Before gluing them together, I cut and scored the door so it would open to show the red and white side of the plaid paper through the door. I also cut and glued the roof out of the 1 1/2" x 4" piece of candy cane stripe paper. I also added some glue and glitter to the green foam tree so it looked decorated and then glued the red sequin star on top before gluing it to the house. I shaped the mini holly garland piece into a circle, and tied the red waxed linen into a tiny bow for my wreath. Please feel free to send me a photo your completed Christmas ATC house.
