Getting in shape for the holidays with Jingle Belles

Jingle Belles challenge is to get in shape for the holidays - shaped cards, that is.   Here's my gingerbread house inspired card for the challenge.


I used my Cricut to create this card.  I found a house image in Design Space and duplicated the brown base part, flipping one of the images to get a mirror.  Then I welded the two house bases together, adding in a narrow rectangle to allow for the card fold.   The white trim was another Cricut cut, adhered just to the card front.   I added some Stickles for snow and some tiny gems for Christmas lights, along with a fussy cut wreath for the door.  The inside is blanks for now, but I'll probably add a "Merry Christmas from our house to yours" sentiment.  This is probably as close as I'll ever come to making a gingerbread house, lol!
