Winter Hexagon Pop Up Card

Oh my gosh!  It has been a frigid start to Winter here in South Dakota. Lots and lots of snow, temperatures, and wind chill up to -42 below. Just plain ridiculous if you ask me. But we might as well make the best of it and celebrate winter and Lori has these super fun Hexagon Pop-Up Cards that are easy to create.

My card today was perfect for my Winter theme, the Snowman Hexagon Pop Up Card in Lori’s store or you can find it here in the Silhouette Online Design Store. Once you make one and see how easy they are, you will want to make more.  They also fold flat for mailing, so one of my friends will enjoy winter with this little snowman to keep her company!

I used Lori’s Echo Park Collection, The Magic Of Winter Collection for the papers and the embellishments on my card.  I did switch out the snowman also, I just couldn’t resist the happy little snowman in the collection pack!

Stay warm and cozy my friends~Cathy

Print and Cut Snowman Christmas Tags

Hello there! I always like to do a Christmas in July project and one of my favorites and most used are tags. Everyone in the family needs them so I usually do a bunch of Print and Cut tags this time of year. It’s so nice to have them done and on hand ready to go.

I used the Print and Cut Christmas Tags Bundle 5 (SVG, Silhouette) and made an offset for the bottom layer. To keep the set together I made a cute little box using the 3D Candy or Tag Box, (SVG, Silhouette).

I only used the box in the file and resized it to fit the tags, this came out perfectly.

Patterned Paper and embellishments are from Echo Park’s Celebrate Winter collection. This would make such a nice gift set!

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Snowman Gift Box with Kathy

Hi Everyone, and Happy New Year!  I don’t know about where you are but we are covered with snow here in the Boston Area!  I’m not a fan of the cold, but I do love snowmen!  I decided to make my own little snowman gift box using Lori’s new Polygon Box – 8 Sides. (here in the Silhouette store).

This little collection of boxes is the perfect way to package up a treat or small gifts!   It was really easy to put together.  I started by loading the box into Silhouette.  I then copied the box two more times to make up the 3 segments of the snowman’s body.  I resized each box so that they were graduated in size.  Widths are 11.75, 10.25 and 8.75.  Be sure to resize proportionately.

I cut the boxes, and glued the decorative panels to each piece before I set to assembling them.

These boxes are very easy to assemble.  To start, I folded the score lines on the tabs and then along the side panel.  Then you simply glue each section of the side to it’s corresponding tab to form the base.

To finish, just glue the remaining side section to both the tab on the side and the tab on the bottom piece.

The top and the bottom of the box are assembled in the same manner.  Once I had all three boxes assembled, I decided to make a hat for the snowman.  I sized the bottom half of the box as shown below and then made a “brim” for the hat by re-sizing one of the decorative cover panels.

The rest is as easy as building a snowman!  I stacked the boxes and added a face & buttons using enamel dots.  The scarf is a piece of ribbon glued to the sides of the cover on the middle box.  I used a removable glue dot to hold the pieces together.  And of course I had to add the cute little birdie, (SVG here in Lori’s Shop) which is this week’s free file in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop!

And each box opens to reveal a treat inside!

That’s it for me today,  thanks for stopping by to peek!
