I have used the Seaside kit from SVG Cuts and having the designer edition of the Silhouette software means that I am able to open the cutting files with no fluffing around.
This is the SVG Cuts version:
Pretty cool, huh??
So I got cutting and assembling and this is my version:
The lantern section lifts off so you can pop in a LED tealight. I am super chuffed with it. I didn’t like my original stripes. I could find the “right” cardstock in my stash so I took them off and used some washi tape instead, following the guidelines on the main body of the structure. I also opted out of putting vellum behind the windows.
They have a YouTube video tutorial on how to put it together but, in fact, I didn’t even watch it. It was easy enough to work it out. I am looking forward to making some of the other pieces in the kit too.

Love it Esther!! Looks just fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteAnother little SGV marvel, saw this in FB even if I was not on DT duty I'd have to come for a better look. Your paper/card modelling like this completely blows me away you make it sound so easy but I know it takes skill, practice and experience to make something as smashing as this. Thank you so much for making it for our Craft-Room Challenge XOXO Zoe
