Day one, the Sizzix Triple Play Blog Hop has begun! For the first project, I started with the cutest little Sizzix Scoreboards Pro Die — House, 3D, designed by my talented friend Eileen Hull.

Something to Cherish Sizzix House Die

This project comes at an apropos time. Having just purchased my first home this summer and being in the middle of tran­si­tioning my studio from one location to the next, I was inspired to design and put together my miniature house utilizing my Something to Cherish embroidery and water­color techniques.

I started by applying water­color patterns directly on the surface of the house elements as well as scrap water­color paper. I was able to quickly make the trims and roof tiling using my very resourceful Quick Snippers compact deco­rative scissors. The house is held together by adorable mini round paper fasteners by Creative Impressions, which also make for a wonderful accents on the flowers as well. The interior of the windows and doors have been lined with felt, giving the home a soft and warm welcome.
