ATCs for All - Houses

I did enjoy making the houses for the previous swap, so much so that I had to join this one.
I cut out several house shaped cards, some folded, some single.
Then what should I do with them?

I cut up some 'room' designs - dining rooms, bathrooms, lounge, stairwells from here.

I think this is going to take too long to make these folded houses .... the houses will have to be single fold and collaged.


I went with the single fold houses .... back on the PC I printed out some Gina K designs and some elements from other scrapbook collections.

Ideas formed in my mind......

I took the little house frame and adhered it to some steampunk paper, put the little boy just inside so he could look at his ladybird safely.  This was placed onto a 'garden' paper and cut to a house shape.


This little hut begged not to be left out!
I just added a toy truck, and a fuzzy frog - see the green behind the frame on the right.  Every boy deserves a motorbike ....




If you've gotta house, so have the fairies!!!
Mushrooms ....  magic?!?!   could be  ... there's a VW parked up behind!  lol

I decoupaged the small mushroom and the grass  (grass?!?!)

So these are my swaps.

I also made a hostess present....

A folded house ....

I pasted some torn print sheets across the front of the purple house and drew on the windows and door with  purple gel pen.  

Inside I pasted the rooms and stairs.  
I had plenty of designs to choose from so I hope the Hostess likes the way I have furnished this home.  
I cut some stamped flowers to use as a garden for the back and then realised I didn't need them as the card details would go here.  
I printed some flowers on a sheet and then printed the card details over them.  I cut the details over a flower and leaves so it conveyed a garden.
Lovely.
Honest!
I have received the following cards:-


A pretty little modern house.
Thank you Camprose.

Embossed, bronzed and blinged house.
Thank you Hinlieltje.


A stately residence.
Thank you Leonarda.



This little house is a gift from the Hostess.


Here is the roof open.


Here is the back of the house.
Thank you Jewels
