1. Lightly distress the top of roof, edges of door and top of snowbank with Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink.
2. Adhere patterned paper onto upper center of card. Place the roof at the top and adhere the 2 house side pieces under roof as shown below. Glue roof in place.
3 Cut out one of the "December 25" from the following paper in the Christmas Hodgepodge pack
4. Glue it to another of the papers from the same pack and angled the bottom as shown, and adhere to the top left corner of card.
5. Glue the Snowbank to the bottom of card.
6. Adhere the door frame so the bottom just barely tucks under the snowbank.
7. Add a piece of Scor Tape to the back of folded 4" x 3-1/2" piece and add a magnet.
8. Apply glue to cover the back. (In the photo below, the scored line is on the right.)
9. Insert the "door" into the frame and stamp "Have a Cozy Christmas" from the Warm Holidays stamp set.
10. Place the 2nd magnet so that it connects to the one underneath.
11. Place a dot of glue (or Scor Tape) to the magnet and close the front cover. Set a bit of weight on it until the glue dries.
12. Add a small piece of Scor Tape onto magnet.
13. Stamp, color and fussy cut the piggy with camera and then add foam dots to the back of him and adhere him over the magnet. **Be sure the foam dots are not on the magnet.
14. Adhere the Tall Door die cut onto the front and insert the gold window pieces w/ glue.
15. Cut apart the leafy vines and create a "swag" for the door by overlapping and staggering the vines.
16. Glue 3 of the gold "berries" from Stump w/ Twig die in a grouping at top of vines, and one for the door handle.
17. Cut the middle (largest) tree from the Three Trees die and stagger the white one behind the patterned one. Add foam tape and adhere to the left side of house as shown.
18. Add some snowflake sequins mix to front.
19. Stamp "Wish you were HERE" from the Deck the Palms stamp set in Vintage Photo D.O. ink to the snowbank. In hindsight, that would've been easier to stamp before I adhered snowbank to card 😉
