Welcome to the Honey Bee Stamp Autumn Blessings Blog Hop Day 2!
Today is Day 2 of the Autumn Blessings Blog Hop. I love shaped cards and the newest dies from the Autumn Blessings Release make the most incredible shaped cards! Today I'm sharing both a house shaped card with the House Builder Dies and a Halloween house with the Halloween House Builder Add On Dies. I love how you can create two completely different houses by changing up the colors and embellishments! Let's get started!

Watch the creation of these house builder shaped cards from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
My absolutely favorite thing about the House Builder dies, other than how stinking cute they are, is that this shaped card fits inside a standard A2 envelope! That's right, friends, no larger envelope needed for these cuties! How awesome is that?!!
To create the brick card base, I first die cut two panels of Lawn Fawn Fog Cardstock using the House Builder house die. On the "house" die cut pieces I used the Tim Holtz Bricked Stencil and added texture to the house with Hickory Smoke Distress Ink and Lawn Fawn Yeti white pigment ink.
The roof for the house was die cut from Lawn Fawn Storm Cloud Cardstock and was scored every 1/4" to add texture. The roof was adhered to the top of the front of the house panel as shown.
The window and trim of the house were die cut from smooth white cardstock.
The inside of the house (or pieces that go behind the windows) were die cut from Hero Hues Arctic Cardstock.
The curtains and window boxes were die cut from Harvest Festival patterned paper.
The door, chimney, and flowers were die cut from Hero Hues Cranberry Cardstock.
The window box greenery was die cut from Hero Hues Pesto Cardstock.
The bushes, topiaries, and wreath were die cut from Hero Hues Palm Cardstock.
The planters were die cut from Lawn Fawn Rainforest Cardstock.
The door trim and stairs was die cut from Lawn Fawn Narwhal Cardstock.
The fence was die cut from Lawn Fawn Woodgrain Neutrals Cardstock.
The rest of the flowers were die cut from Lawn Fawn No 2 Pencil and Canned Pumpkin Cardstock.
The house panels were adhered with the die cut hinge and the accessories were assembled according to the video tutorial above.
A sentiment from the Grateful Each Day Stamp Set was stamped inside the card with black dye ink.
To create the brick card base, I first die cut two panels of Hero Hues Plum Cardstock using the House Builder house die. On the "house" die cut pieces I used the Tim Holtz Bricked Stencil and added texture to the house with Black Soot Distress Ink and Lawn Fawn Yeti white pigment ink.
The roof for the house was die cut from Lawn Fawn Storm Cloud Cardstock using the Halloween House Builder Add On Die. The roof was inked with Black Soot Distress Ink before being added to the front panel of the house.
The fence, door trim, stairs, and window trim were die cut from Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Cardstock.
The tree and boards were die cut from Lawn Fawn Woodgrain Neutrals Cardstock.
The door was die cut from Lawn Fawn Storm Cloud Cardstock.
The tombstones were die cut from Lawn Fawn Narwhal Cardstock.
The ghosts were die cut from Hero Arts Vellum.
The pumpkins were die cut from Lawn Fawn Canned Pumpkin and Black Licorice Cardstock.
The bats were die cut from Lawn Fawn Autumn Sparkle Cardstock.
The house panels were adhered with the die cut hinge and the accessories were assembled according to the video tutorial above.
A sentiment from the Faboolous Sentiments Stamp Set was stamped inside the card with black dye ink.
I hope this has inspired you to create your own incredible shaped house cards!
