Tuesday Trio of Tips...

Following on from yesterday's post... I have a few more tips for you when using those little houses from the Trimming The Town suite...

Firstly... how to get the most houses out of your papers!
Fussy cut round those at the sides too... they just pop behind the central one... and no-one knows that you didn't use a full one!


Secondly... re-design your houses... and get even more...
Fussy cut round those at the top too...and the roofs at the bottom... and come up with something original! 
Though actually I have just realised that I did this with the larger house... ie on the other sheet of paper...
But the same applies with the smaller houses if you have the patience! 

 So I will live these here...
And thirdly... vary your cards for maximisation...
My little decorative 7.4cm square red panel with 7cm square white panel neatly fits onto a variety of square card blanks... For example...

So as to maximise impact (14cm or 5 1/2" square so one from a sheet of cardstock)


Or maximise cardstock usage (3 x small 9.9cm square cards from one sheet of A4... )

    I haven't got this set, but your tips are excellent and would be such fun. The cards look great with the mix and match. Thank you for sharing x
