SVGCuts Merry Maple Manor | 3D Paper House/Gift Box | SVGCuts

Hey everyone!
Are you all ready for Christmas? I'm not even close... eeek! I have been so busy with these crafty projects that I'm starting to panic because I haven't started my Christmas shopping yet :(

Anyways, let me tell you a little about today's project... This house comes from SVGCuts Maple Manor SVG Kit. If you saw the last house I did (HERE) you may have noticed it was inspired by Thienly Azim's Home For Christmas Project.... same goes for this house! This particular house is now displayed on one of the hospital units I work on. Hopefully, it will bring some JOY and smiles to the patients, visitors, and the staff I work with! I really love how this one turned out and hope they do too :)

Here is a list of the alterations I made to the original house:

  • Windows (See Home For Christmas for instructions).
  • Added poke holes around the roofline to poke Christmas lights through.
  • Added all the files listed above to embellish the house and make it my own. You can do the same using any files you may have!
Cut out black Silhouettes and add them in front of the windows. When the house is lit up it will actually look like there are little people living inside it... Super cool!!!

Love the silhouette of this little girl with her present at the window... and how pretty is this wreath too! I'm always amazed when I am able to cut out small intricate pieces, check out these small leafy cuts, cut out perfectly on the Silhouette Cameo.

Here is a side shot of the Merry Maple Manor.

For the snow along the roofline, I used Snow-tex from DecoArt that I purchased at Micheal's. This stuff is great and dries in a few hours!

      Thanks Kelly! It's so fun to watch people stare at it and then realize that it is all made out of paper. The fun part is when I tell them I made it and they are like... no way I don't believe you, lol!

      Thanks Natasha! So much possibilities with the Silhouette. It is my favourite crafting tool. I use it for everything!!! You should try building something out of paper, I warn you it is very addicting. It's like paper Lego, lots of pieces, lots of mess... but so rewarding when you are done!

    Your work is wonderful, I was hoping you would tell me what brand of cardstock and glue that you use. Thank you, Jane

      Hi Jane, most of the cardstock I used was white AC cardstock. The glue I always use is scotch quick dry glue. Hope that helps :)
