Doghouse

We have this special thing at school where kids earn "caught being good" tickets and they're all put in a box and every Friday a name is drawn to be "Bulldog of the Week." Well, the box in the office was kind of out-dated lame so I created a new one over Christmas break. (Yes, it has been a MONTH since I posted last). I started out with a photograph box, then made walls and the roof using thick chipboard. I cut strips of red cardstock and inked them to make the siding, and used sandpaper for the roof. My wonderful cricut cut out the "BULLDOGS" label. I love the font on Car Decals! The project is something like 7x13, x12 inches tall. LOVE IT! I ended up adding some scrollwork around the top to hide the hot-glue gun marks (from attaching the roof) but forgot to take a picture afterward.
