Today my teenage neighbor Paula came over ,and played around with the winter_christmas_scene_components and improved upon my first layout. I think I still put it rotated a little too much to the left, but the perspective around the lake looks better this time. She had fun moving things around, so don't be afraid to try it with your granddaughter or daughter or teenage friend too. I'll add to the components file our lake and surrounding snow, which will give you a head start. To be able to scale this scene to 12x12 paper, I had to make 3 svgs. One for the lake, one for the buildings, and one for the snow and rooftops. paulas villag2_white_svg

When using the last file, I layed it out, so you can do one column of houses one color(of use yellow first, as the lights for the street lights are there), the next another, the next another, to add some variety to the scene. THe white that cuts in the middle of the snow, are the snow covered roofs of all the houses. Look at the pictures to see how they look. If you use too heavy card stock, you'll have trouble with the tiny, windows and the candy canes by the doors. Normal scrapbook card board is correct.
I hope you enjoy making your own village as much as we did!
