Step-2

Resize the image as desired.

Step-3

Change the colour of the buildings with windows so that they are all the same: white. Change the colour of the background buildings as desired according to the vellum colours being used.

Step-4

Cut the buildings from white cardstock trimmed to 12 x 12″, inserting the scoring stylus into the accessory port A when prompted.

Step-5

Carefully remove each cut image from the cutting mat. Use the silicon side of the scraper tool to carefully crease the buildings' tab.

Step-6

Glue the buildings together, cutting away the tab from the one at the right end of the line with scissors. Allow to dry before bending the building line.
