Hi everyone :-)

Here is a tutorial on how the Steampunk Spells house stand is made.

This is a Graphic 45 Design Team project and will link to theyr blog as soon as it is published. 

Used 2 5 x 3 matchboxes  from Graphic 45 as a base and the chipboard for the house is from Accucut Craft.All the other pieces are cut out from 1.9 mm chipboard.
The house, doors, lamp post and fence is painted with Tim Holtz black Crackle paint



 Paintet the 2 matchboxes black
and cut out 4 strips chipboard 11 x 1  1/2 ( minus a bit ) 
and 8 strips 3 3/4 x 1  1/2 ( minus a bit ) 
The chipboard I used is 1.9 mm thick so you might have to adjust it if you are using an other thickness

The largest door measure 4 inch hay on the largest side and 3 1/5 on the other side. 1 3/4 wide
Added 1/4 strips chipboard around
The rounded door measure 3 on the largest side and 2 on the other side.3/8 wide
