Trying to get a good shot of miniatures with Sony Cybershot? Tips, please!?

I have a small cardstock house that I'd like to take pictures of, but every time I try getting in a close shot, the image turns out blurry. The house itself is about 2" long, 1 1/2" wide, and 2" tall, and sits on a square base that's about 4" all around. The base also has other items of interest, like two pine trees, a porch, a walkway, and a snowman, about 3/4" tall. So in other words, there are several small items that need to come out clearly in order to get a good shot, especially the house and the snowman. Can anyone here give me tips on how to get a good shot using a Sony Cybershot, model no. DSC-S700? Thanks so much!
