Top Dog Dies - House Album

Hello and welcome to Top Dog Dies Tuesday!  I have a fun album to share today.  


I added a bit of lacy curtain and some lights that I have had for so long I don't even remember where or when I bought them.

 For my second page I continued with the same roof and chimney.  I added glittered snowflakes and die cut buttons from Top Dog Dies Sew Much Fun Die Set.

This family photo is from last Christmas.

For my last album page I added the small snowflake from the Snowflake Trio Die Set and included part of the fence.


The photo is a bit dark but it's Stormagedon.  She just loved the Christmas tree last year!  I had to buy shatterproof ornaments and leave my treasures in their storage boxes because Miss Storm likes to climb and play with shiny things! 


To create the album pages I glued Kraft CS to a Taco Shell box cut to fit my die cutting machine.   Using food boxes are a great way to create inexpensive chipboard and recycle both at the same time!


I created three pieces of  "chipboard" and ran them through the machine ending up with beautifully die cut House Album pages!


Next it was time for decorating!  
I decided that only fancy lace would do for the windows.


Check out this chimney with the FABULOUS embossed brickwork!!!

A doorknob for the door and Christmas lights on the fence finishes off the front of the house.



Thanks so much for looking!
