I LOVE little houses and anything that has to do with them so when I saw this challenge I had to participate. This is what I came up with.
I started by converting the template into an SVG file then I added the windows and doors. Next I cut the base and roof out of Sweet Blush and aqua digital cardstock and put them together. When I was done I used spray adhesive and applied angel dust glitter. The house really sparkles in real life. I hope you can see it in the photo. I decorated the roof with baby pom pom trim, silver tinsel and homemade tissue paper fringe. I also added digital sheet music patterned paper reduced to 50%. Finally I finished it off with tiny pearls, the banner from Door To Door which fits perfectly and a silver glitter star with a button hot glued to the middle. I placed the house on a square piece of white cardstock then attached more tissue paper trim to look like snow and placed it on my cake stand. The bottle brush trees are from this Etsy shop. I also bought some matching wreaths which I was hoping to add to the circular window but they have not arrived yet. When they do I will add them if they fit and update the photo. ETA: The wreaths I ordered were to big so this is how I finished it off instead. The small photo is how it was before.

Terri, this takes my breath away! Should be in a paper house museum. The star shines!
Your little house is just perfect in every way! I just treated myself to a Cameo for Christmas and I am so looking forward to learning how to use it like you did here. LOVE all your trims and that beautiful glittery star!
