Bridal Shower Card with Kathy

Hi Everyone!  It’s Kathy today with a fun and quick card I made for a recent bridal shower.  I used one of Lori’s older cards, the Wedding Dress Card (available here in the Silhouette Store )  Take a peek…

The best thing about this card is that it is so easy to customize.  It comes with multiple pieces for the wedding dress including a full dress as well as a separate top and bottom, so you could use different colors or textures if you wish.    I used the full dress piece and ran it through my Sizzix with an embossing folder to give it a lacy texture. I also added a ribbon and enamel dots. The background paper is from the Lori’s new Perfect Princess collection for Echo Park Paper.   It coordinated perfectly with the bride’s color scheme!  That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

4th of July Firecracker with Anita

Anita here today with a tutorial on how to make Lori’s 3D Firecracker.  You can find this file in her SVG shop here and here in the Silhouette Store.  I also used some parts of the 5X7 Box Card July 4th to add to the embellishments of my project.  You can find that file  here in Lori’s store and here in the Silhouette Store.  I love to mix and match Lori’s Echo Park collections on my projects and used I Love Winter and Go See Explore.

Here are the materials that I used for my project.

The firecracker wick is perforated so that you can fold the wick into a small square and then put it through the hole.

Next you are going to fold the tabs back and glue them to the inside of the cover of the tube.

Here is what is looks like from the front.

Next, fold down the tabs on the cover piece and glue them to one of the circles.  One of the extra red circles gets glued to the inside of the top to hide the tabs and glue.

Here is a photo of the Stickles that I put on the edges of the wick.

Repeat the process for the tube body.  This photo shows the red circle inside and I love the finished look.

Here is a close up photo of the embellishments.  I used the 4th of July circle from the box card.

That’s it for me today.  This is so cute and you can fill it with candy or leave it empty and on your table for a holiday centerpiece.

Hugs,

Anita

 


Digital Inspiration with Ashley

The summer heat is beginning to settle in around here.  May just flew by.  I hope to remember all the many things that happened.  Here are some May Highlights featuring Lori’s The Good Life Collection:

 

I also used Life Templates SQ Set 2.  I rotated the template 180 degrees.

And I used the Perfect Print Font.
