Many years ago, I used to buy a magazine type of thing that had little bits of doll's furniture/house to put together each week......you know one of those "seemed like a good idea at the time" type of things. Well I never completed the house or all of the furniture but I did keep what furniture I had made. My little grand-daughter thought it would be good to have a doll's house to put it in so trying to think of a cheap and fun way, we ended up making a house from empty nappy boxes. She loves it so I thought I would like to "scrap" It.


I cut my base piece using Fancy Pants My Family (uncle) to the 8.5 x 11 size. Then I cut a roof from kraft cardstock and an insert for the roof from the FP My family (uncle).


I attached the roof to the base overlapping the base by about 1/2".


Then I just cut off the corners of the base as it met with the roof and added a piece of FP My Family (reunion) paper.


I'm going to put my LO into a 8.5x11 plastic sleeve by slitting the side edge of the sleeve so that the roof can poke through but you could easily just make a house base and roof and mount it onto a 12x12 backing.


I've also used Fancy Pants ribbons and buttons. Some flowers, paint, mist and alphas.

How fantastic is this!!

Love how you have captured this wonderful memory too Deb!

So clever
