House Rules-Simon Says Stamp Challenge

A fun challenge from Simon Says Stamp this week - "House Rules" and I had these three building kits from Melissa Frances, some winter themed kits in blues, and a Saturday crop, so it all fell into place! Here are the basic steps I went through in creating my little village.
Materials for the houses- paper and embellishments from kits
Trees, tinsel, stains, stickles...
Trace the cardboard pieces, then cut out carefully
Adhere papers to chipboard and ink
Construct the house, add some "gingerbread"
All put together, and ready to fancy up
Completed house, with more snow than I have yet seen this year

Front, with tree

Church front with rhinestones
Church back with wreath
Now, to get the Christmas tree up and the house decorated for the holidays!
