Here’s a cute little project that you can complete for someone buying a new home:
It’s fairly easy to do. I’ll show you how!
Just cut an 8 1/2″ x 11″ piece of patterned paper in half so you’ve got an 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece. Fold in both edges towards the center making a gate folded card.
Add your roof onto the card. Here’s the template for you! Just print and trace to make your roof. (I also included with the template the bushes and the inside sentiment if you don’t want to print your own!)
Fold the roof flap and attach the roof to the back of the card:
Finish up the front by adding a door and bushes and a scalloped edge to your roof:
Now finish off the inside of the card and you’re done.
For the inside I printed the sentiment to go on one side, made an empty space in the middle for writing your own message, and then used some 3L Scrapbook Adhesives white photo corners to hold the gift card.
On one I attached a little flower, and on the other I stamped and pieced a vase from the Furnishing Fun set.
Happy Crafting!
