Ultimate XL Fold Flat Halloween Village Scene

1 Comment

Today I’m sharing a Halloween decor piece that is sitting on my mantel (svg, silhouette). The photos don’t do it justice. It is HUGE! The pieces went together easily, like a fun puzzle. I decided to use Bella Blvd papers and embellishments. I’m going to put fairy lights behind the windows for a fun spooky effect. The best part about the finished village (besides the over the top cuteness!) is that it all folds up. I could tuck it away and use it again next year.

Witch Boot Treat Box

1 Comment

One of my favorite Halloween traditions is making a small treat for my teammates. This year, I created the Witch Boot Treat Box (SVG) and filled it with a popular Halloween candy. Its simple design makes it ideal for adding some playful witchy decorations.

This file includes four box sides, one box bottom, two boot covers, and four boot lace covers. For the box sides and bottom, all tabs are folded in a mountain fold. The box sides are attached side by side, alternating wide and narrow sides, until all four sides are connected. Attach the bottom of the box to its narrow end, then secure the wide side tab to the corresponding wide box side. Once the first tab is secured, move on to the next, gluing the remaining tabs to the bottom of the box.

With the bottom of the box in place, add glue to the final side and close it up. To secure the long tab, use the handle of a paper tool to press from inside the box against the tab.
The straight edge of the boot lace cover lines up with the straight edge at the front of the boot. The boot cover is then attached to one wide side of the box, with the box opening positioned at the top. Follow the same steps for the other side of the boot.
The treat box is now prepped for some witchy charm. I punched holes and threaded ribbon through the front of the boot, added quirky black stars, and topped it off with a trick-or-treat tag (SVG, Silhouette).
This adorable treat box is all set to be filled and shared with my team. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments. Thanks for joining us today!

Witch Hat Lantern Tutorial

Leave a comment

Happy Thursday everyone! 23 days until Halloween. I can’t wait! With that being said, I created this amazing project using 3 files. I used the Witch Hat Lantern found HERE, (Silhouette) I used 3D Flower 4 found HERE, and I also used Build A Rosette: 2 inch found HERE. I used Handmade Halloween paper collection from Echo Park Paper Company found HERE.

Cut all your pieces for the witch hat lantern and any embelishments you with to decorate it with. I used the rosette and  3D flower 4 as mentioned above. 
I inked my edges of the flower and rosette.
Gently curve the paper wedge and fold on the score lines.
Adhere the straight edges together to form a cone. The piece that has the slant goes on the inside, with the outside piece overlapping the slant piece. I use score tape to secure the seam.

Fold the tabs on the brim up and adhere the cone piece onto the polka dot brim piece using score tape.

Create the rosette by folding along the score lines into accordion pleats. Join the ends to form a ring. Press the top edge inward to flatten it into a circle and adhere the center onto a small paper backing circle (cut from any scrap paper) using liquid glue or score tape.

 

Using liquid glue or score tape, adhere the rosette to the bottom center portion of the cone. Adhere the pumpkin sticker to the front of the rosette.

To assemble the 3D Flower 4 just layer your pieces on top of each other and adhere in the center with adhesive or a brad.

Tie ribbon of your choice around where the brim meets the cone. Cover the knot with the 3D Flower 4. I found the eyeball for this at Dollar Tree on a flower and had to use it for this project because I loved it so much.

I put a battery operated tea light in the cone for the glow.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!!

If you haven’t met Leslie yet, here’s a little bit about her—in her own words:

“I’m absolutely delighted to be the newest member of the Lori Whitlock creative team! I’m married to Ed, and we have four grown kids and six grandkids. I’m affectionately known as the crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We are paw-rents to ten feline rescues and a Forkie (Frenchie + Yorkie) pup! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses, and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art, and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins!”

We’re so happy to have you, Leslie, and can’t wait to see all the wonderful projects you create! Please join us in giving her a warm welcome to the Lori Whitlock Creative Team! ❤️✂️🎨

 

 

Here is her first post with us:

Hey everybody, happy Monday! I hope your week is off to a nice start! Leslie here, sharing my debut project as a new creative team member, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! I’ve been a huge fan of Lori Whitlock for many years and this opportunity is a dream come true for this old gal! I’m sharing THE cutest new home mini album that I created using Hidden Binding Mini Album House SVG cut file (Silhouette) (from the Hidden Binding Mini Album Bundle 2) and the Library Pocket SVG cut file. Also used papers from the Pattern Fill Set Fresh Air. I’m a mini album fanatic and a huge fan of Lori’s hidden binding mini albums, so you’ll be seeing more of them in future posts. Let me show you this one in more detail!

This album features a variety of designer papers from the Fresh Air Pattern Fill Set and a front sentiment created with the draw function on my Cricut. I’ve also included elements such as die cuts, library pockets, and fussy cut florals on the inside pages and the back.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing this project and you’re inspired to make a hidden binding mini album. They are so much fun!

Scrappy hugs,
Leslie
