Halloween Scene Décor Tutorial

Welcome to Tutorial Thursday.  Lori as added several Halloween scenes to the shop.  Most of the collection are just a single color.  The one I’m sharing today uses multiple colors in the extra pieces and is slightly larger than the single color versions. You can find it in Lori’s SVG Shop and Silhouette store. It’s fun and easy to put together, I’ve outlined the steps below.

1. Cut all the pieces.  Each panel needs two 12×12 sheets.  I used black for the back of the panel and gray for the top layer.  You can use the same color for the panels too.

2. Now assemble each panel. Start with the back panel, layer the front panel.  Then add the Halloween pieces.

3. Apply adhesive to the glue tab and connect two panels together.

4. Attach the third panel.

5.  This is such a fun décor piece.  It’s just under 12 inches tall and 20 inches wide.

 

Have a great day!

Birthday Balloons Bag

Happy Labor Day (for those in the United States).  Happy Monday to all.  I hope you have great things planned for today and week.  How about starting the week off with some crafty inspiration.  Lori recently added some new bags to her shop.  I am sharing the Birthday Balloons bag today (SVG, Silhouette).

These bags are quick to piece together, and there are several design options in the shop. It’s a perfect size for a small gift with a gift card or a treat. It would also work great as a party favor bag.

Flower Tag Tutorial

Today I’m going to share a tutorial for the Flower Tag (SVG, Silhouette). This is a fun tag that can be added to a treat or a gift.

To start, cut out all the pieces.  I then inked the edges and also used a marker to curl the edges of the flower pieces to give the pieces more dimension.

To assemble, I first used adhesive to glue the leaf on the tag. Next I layered each piece of the flower.  I applied liquid adhesive to the center of each piece and stacked the pieces one at a time.

Now the tag is all ready to be added to a gift!  You could make these in a variety of colors for the seasons or to match your wrapping!

Have a great day!

Patriotic Bird House Tutorial

Have you seen the new Patriotic Birdhouses in Lori’s SVG shop and in her Silhouette Store Gallery?

 

Today I’m featuring the 3D Birdhouse with Stand Patriotic File (SVG,Silhouette)  I put together a quick tutorial for you.

1. First, cut out all the pieces of the Birdhouse:

2. Next, glue all the roof layers starting with the biggest piece and stacking and adhering each smaller piece on top of it.

3. Adhere the star to the birdhouse door.

4. Fold the tabs on the body of the birdhouse, and fold to form and glue.  All tabs are folded in the same direction.

4. Glue the bird pieces together.  Black piece is the back, the light piece in the middle, and the blue piece on top with the wing.

5. Fold the base pieces and glue the tabs together.  These form a little box that will hold the post.

6. Fold and adhere the post.

7. Use glue or glue dot to attach the bird to the front of the birdhouse.  Stick the post into the base and glue. And stick the birdhouse onto the post and glue.

It is such a fun birdhouse to add to your décor for the summer!

Have a great day!
