It is not permitted to use them on the internet or in any other publication. For this project you will need: - A sheet of cardstock the size of typing   paper in any color - scissors - transparent paper or vellum - 2-sided self adhesive tape - a ruler Tip: You may of course use glue to stick the sides together. The tape helps that the house flaps are immediately secure. When using glue, the problem of holding the house together is a problem until the glue dries. Instructions: 1. The easiest way to make these is to print the pattern directly out on the cardstock if the cardstock is a lighter color. The size is the size of a sheet of typing paper. This will make with 7cm x 7cm walls. Or you may choose to make a template of the house and trace around the template onto the cardstock. 2. Cut around all of the outside edges of the house. The side with these markings is the inside of the house. 3. Using a stylus or knitting needle and a ruler, follow the inside lines of the house between the walls and the bottom flaps to make a groove in the paper. This makes it easier to fold afterwards. 4. Using an exacto knife, cut the windows out. 5. Cut four 5 x 5 cm squares out of the transparent paper and use the double sided tape to stick them to cover the windows. 6. Fold the house together so that it has four sides. The transparent paper covering the windows is on the inside of the house. Apply thin strips of the double sided self adhesive tape underneath the grey shaded areas of the short bottom flaps so that they will stick on the inside of the house to the large bottom flap (olive green). Stick a strip of tape also to the side flap so that it can be stuck to the inside of the house to the first wall. No small flaps should be seen on the outside of the house.
