This house is made using Groom Specialty DSP and it turned out great…

bloghopspookyhouseI love how the skeleton looks like he is popping out of the door to greet you and it was so easy to make – I added a little button for the door knob and purple behind the door for a contrast…

The roof section is separate and is attached to the card using Dimensionals – I used a double layer of dimensionals stacked on one another to make it pop up alot and look like the roof overhangs the house…

I edged the roof using the Scallop Edge Punch (pg 187) and made the chimney using some scraps – I angled the chimney to make it stand out a little and the rim of the chimney is also attached using Dimensionals to give it…well…dimension!  The smoke?  That is simply a piece of thin wire that I twisted around my finger and onto it I threaded some Silver and Clear Microbeads – isn’t it a cool effect?

I made the window simply by using some Square Punches and that cute Jack-o-lantern?  He is simply a Pumpkin Pie Corduroy Brad onto which I added some shapes I cut out of scrap pieces of cardstock.

Want to make your own?  It’s super easy and fun – here is a template showing sizes that would work well but of course you can customise and make it any size you wish simply by trimming or adding 1/2″ or so to each measurement…
