I had a ton of fun making this project for my Artisan contribution this month! We were given some sweet treats to create with and I just had to use this little gem! I love the Gingerbread Man (even before Cole decided to be one for Halloween:) I'm not sure that I'm going to make a million of these, but a few more will be happening:)
I used the milk carton die to create the base of the gingerbread house. All the cut pieces are using the Scentsational Bundle Framelits (except for the banner which is from Bitty Banners Framelits). The gumdrops might be my favourite part of this creation.....cardtsock covered in Dazzling Diamonds....YUMMY!!!!
Here is most of the supply list for this creation (I'm sure I'm forgetting things as there were about a million:)
- Old Olive Cardstock 100702

- Daffodil Delight Cardstock 119683

Hi Heather,
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the gingerbread house even more now that I've made it myself. It is so CUTE in real life. I posted a silly story about my husband eating all of MY cookies and then it goes on to feature the gingerbread house. I've got a link in my blog post to come back to your page. Thank you again for giving me permission to CASE this! If you have time, I would love for you to visit my blog!
Peace, Love & Joy

For sure you can CASE this, thank you:) You guys are WAY too sweet! Thanks for the kind words! As for making it easy to get in...if you don't glue the roof on the top and just build it, fold it over the top and secure it with a little clothespin you wouldn't have to rip it apart:)
Thanks again1

This is the best use of the Scentsational Bundle that I have seen. How adorable!

Hi Heather,
Your gingerbread house is absolutely FABULOUS!!!! This is the most adorable use of the milk carton die that I've ever seen!!! Love, love, LOVE it. I have a suggestion for the lady above, maybe if a small hole was punched on the front of the milk carton and then the door was put on with just a couple of glue dots, the person could gently loosen the door to get the treats out and then just stick it back in place to use the house as a decoration!
Heather, may I have permission to CASE this. I would LOVE to give this as a Christmas gift to all my customers at my stamp camps next week!
Peace, Love & Joy,
Joyce

Love, Love, LOVE this!
But when people try to get the treats inside, they will rip this cutest little thing open : (
Any better solution for getting the treats inside?
Thanks!
