I wanted to bring all of you teapotters some candy, so paved the walkway to my g.b. house with bright, colorful candies. Last winter I made some cards using Tim's Rickety House decked out in a snowy scene. I decided to try it as a g.b. house.
Cut the house, trim copied, vintage sheet music to fit behind windows, ink w/Ranger distress wild honey, adhere. Line inside windows w/SU choc chip marker. Add MME scallop trim at roof-line. Cut Tim's trees from DCWV sparkle green paper, add kraft tree trunks. Stamp SU light pink paper. with Fire King b.g. snowflakes stamp, Ranger distress tumb glass. Place trees and house, adhere. Add colorful "candy" path, punched from SU circle punch, using scrap c.s. Stamp greeting w/SU (?) stamp. Meant to ink edges of card w/Ranger distress vintage photo but I forgot. I must be tired cause I don't ever forgot the distress ink!
Thanks for looking!

So cute, but I think there are too many candies marking the path, I will eat a few and help you out!!

Grin, I've made a couple of rickety gingerbread houses in my time - cool idea to use that die. I hope nobody eats the candy path before we all find our way to the house first.
