Chipboard house, My Moms Birthday Present

I bought this kit at the greatest little craft store in Pendleton Oregon called "The Heart of the Home." I was a little intimidated when I took  it out of the package. I couldn't decide just how to cover it. Should I paint it or cover it with paper? In the end I ended up covering it with paper and adding some old fashioned stickers friend had given me, popping some of them up with pop dots. I printed small 2x3 pictures of my children and fit them in the windows and door opening. I am really pleased with how it turned out and my Mom loved it!
