Lynn - Your church is beautiful! I love the mica and the snowy effect. Thanks for posting about the bases also. I agree with Lucy: that's some amazing cutting!

Here is my version of the Dolly Church. I enjoyed making it and it is so much fun to see the different churches people are creating.

Will...Howard, here...(answering for Lynn...since i have the link at my fingertips)...about the basic dolly fence cutting pattern...go here...

https://www.cardboardchristmas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1006

It's in the second PDF...you will have to adjust based on the dimensions of you base...add a post or modify the width of the post, gap or gate, etc...

Hope this helps...if not...let me know...

Laney...really like your choice of pink glitter for the church and the fence...the solid white roof...and those dark green trees...lots of contrast...

By the way...there are THREE MORE dolly projects in the works...(another church and two houses)...hope to post the first one within a week or so...

Howard...

I just think this pattern is so clever because it has a tower without gluing an additional piece on the roof. I'm working on one for Halloween and then I'm going to make another with a taller body and add a clock face to the tower.
