Gift Card Bag Get Well Soon

Leave a comment

Happy April 1st!  Are you playing any tricks today?  I’m here to share not a trick but a fun Get Well Bag.  You can find the bag in Lori’s Shop and at Silhouette.  Lori also has a tutorial here.

All the ingredients for a Copycat Starbucks Medicine ball fit perfectly into the bag.

You are going to love making these bags.  All of the same color bag pieces fit on one 12×12 piece of cardstock. I used Lori’s Bee Happy paper line. There are other bag themes too.

Thanks for stopping by!

Box Card Birdhouse Flowers Tutorial

1 Comment

Hi there friends! Has Spring sprung where you live yet? It has where I live and I’m ready for it. I have loved all the springtime files that are showing up in Loris’s shop and knew I needed to make one. Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the Box Card Birdhouse Flowers (SVG, Silhouette).

This card is darling as is, but I needed to put a little spin on it with bees. I used the Bee Happy collection by Echo Park Paper Co. I also resized everything to be a little bigger.

 

 

I first glued all of the flowers together. All of the flowers have two layers and a center. I swapped out the paper centers for enamel dots. I then glued all of the flowers onto the green inserts. The middle insert has most of the flowers while the back insert has two flowers. For the first insert I trimmed off the bird and glued on the bee sticker.

Next, I glued on the decor for the birdhouse. (I forgot to take a proper picture) There are two sets of two roof pieces, two rounds for the doorway and a smaller round for decoration. There are also two base pieces for the bottom of the birdhouse and one for a perch. One of the completed roofs and bottom pieces are for the back. The base of the of the box card comes in two pieces that needs to be glued together. Line up the edge of large tab with the side of the house. With the front of the house facing down, I glued the inserts in. Be sure to have the right side of the insert facing you. All of the tabs are valley folds. I added glue to back of the right tab then lined the tab up with the straight edge of the front of the house and the top of the side of the box base. Then lined up the next two inserts up next to the back of the insert in front and the top of the side of the box card. I then carefully folded the inserts over making sure not to bend the leaves of the flowers so that the wrong sides of the inserts are facing up.

 

I had to trim the edges of the left tabs because they were overlapping the tab in front of it a little bit. Then I added glue to all of them and folded the base of the box card over making sure all the small tab lined up correctly. I then added glue to the large tab on the base and folded the back of the card over holding in place until the glue set.

 

I then added a bee sticker to the front on the card and tucked one into the back flowers.

 

 

 

I really like how this one turned out. I hope you all have a happy spring and thanks for being here.

A Magical Voyage Layout

Happy Monday everyone! I was so excited when the new A Magical Voyage line by Echo Park and Lori Whitlock showed up on my doorstep. I couldn’t wait to create with it because it has airplanes and clouds!! My youngest bonus son is going to school to be a pilot and he had just graced my texts with flight photos.

I used the Thankful font (SVG, Silhouette) for my journaling and used a border from the ephemera packages around it.
I added some chipboard clouds and the airplane sticker with some pop dots and some enamel dots to finish off my look.

 

I absolutely adore the versatility of this line and I hope you think outside the collection kit to make some great things.

Happy Crafting!

Matchbox Drawer Card Baby Tutorial

 Hi everyone! Happy creating…I have a super quick tutorial to share with you today for Lori’s

Matchbox Baby Drawer Card or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.  Just an easy little box and card in one.  You can make it in a matter of minutes as it goes together so quickly.  I used Lori’s new Echo Park Special Delivery Baby Girl collection.  Oh my gosh, if it isn’t precious.

First, cut your pieces in the colors of your choice.  The next two photos show that.

 

 

Then fold on you score lines, adhere your layers of paper.  You can see below where I added scor-tape.
Then simply fold and adhere into the box and cover.  I may have been too busy gabbing at a scrapbook retreat to get all the photos in….but you can watch Lori’s tutorial here.  She saves the day for me!
But here is how this darling little box ends up with all the amazing embellishments from the Sweet Delivery collection!
Little card right on top!

 

So cute!
And that little matchbox drawer to stash a gift card in!  Love!
Thanks for joining us today!

A2 Easel Card Easter 2 Bunnies

Hi! I’m dreaming of spring, planting season, and sunshine so I made an Easter card with bunnies because they make me happy! Originally this is a card (SVG, Silhouette) but I wanted to add to my decor so I trimmed down the base and instead of creating the print and cut, I used some stickers to create the stopper. I used cardstock and Lori’s All About A Girl Echo Park collection.

So here’s to spring and happy sunny weather!
