This festive Gingerbread house just makes me smile!

This is the backside of the Gingerbread house!

How did I do it?

I just FLIPPED the Haunted House inside out.

So this Kraft colored house is actually the inside of the Haunted House!

I flipped the roof peak & the shutters over so that the white side of them showed.

I cut vellum for the windows so that it looked like frost was on the inside.

I traced the door & fussy cut it out of woodgrain dsp.

I stamped snowflake onto plain retired vellum using a White Craft ink pad & 

put that on the Gingerbread House roof.

I added some die Icicles using the Frozen Edge Dies.

I added some Peppermints along the roof peak top.

The snowman, wreath, bow, sled & tree were all punched out of the Epherma pack.

The reindeer & the presents were both fussy cut out of the Reindeer Days DSP.

I hope you have a very blessed Christmas Eve as we get ready to celebrate the birth of Jesus!

Happy Stamping!
