Santa Paws Shaker Tutorial

Leave a comment
Welcome to the Thursday tutorial! Today I used one of Lori’s postage  frames and made it into a fun shaker card. Very easy and fast!  I used Lori’s new Here Comes Santa Paws Christmas Collection for my theme.
Santa Paws Shaker

Vintage Postcard 4×6
This is what the file looks like (in the Silhouette software) when you open it. (I did highlight the first piece in red.) You need to choose the first two pieces for this card and delete the rest.
Make a duplicate of the red striped piece. (Control + any arrow)
To get the frame without the cut outs, right click the frame and choose  Release Compound Path and remove the cut out pieces, leaving a solid frame. You can move the two rectangle and recenter if you find that easier.

This is what your two frames will look like.  

Final cut pieces

 The first piece you will cut is your background piece which will be my blue sky and a piece of acetate. The second piece, is the solid frame – I cut 3 per page out of 8.5×11 generic white cardstock (9 pieces total) – they won’t show so you can use less expensive white cardstock. You can cut only one of the solid frame is you want to use foam for the edges of your shaker.  My final top piece is cut  out of red. 
 

 

 
First Stack – red piece glued to one white frame and the acetate is glued on the bottom. 
The second stack – glue all the white frames together (use enough to make a good size stack). I used 7 frames because my snowflakes where a bit thick.
 
Assemble the second stack, add your shaker pieces inside and glue on  your top section.  I decorated the the top of the card with Lori’s new Santa Paws dies! Voila! You can then add it to a card base and call it good!
 
Products Used:
 
Cut File: 6 pc 4×6 Vintage Postcard
 
Here Comes Santa Paws: 6×6 paper pad, Christmas Puppy Pals Die Set, Embossed Christmas Tree Die Set, Ephemera
 
 
I love all of Lori’s frames, they are perfect for using as a great card base. 
 
I hope you give this a try!

5X7 3D Fall Bouquet

1 Comment

Happy Monday everyone!  We are FINALLY getting some fall weather here in South Dakota. I’m so excited for that. These 90 degree days were getting old.

Today, I created this cute fall bouquet and mini card found in Lori’s shop or the Silhouette store (SVG, Silhouette).

I used Doodlebug Farmhouse collection and coordinating patterned paper. I just adore these colors and patterns. I popped all the top pumpkin pieces with enamel hearts.

I finished off the projects with some epoxy hearts and bakers twine.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting.

Bee-Lieve in Happy Little Details

1 Comment

For this project, I mixed and matched several of Lori’s SVG files…multi layered mini album, tiered album tabs, library pocket, shaker sunshine…to create one sweet little bee-themed album full of interactive details.

I used Lori’s Bee Happy paper collection throughout, and I love how the yellows, greens, floral, bees and honey-inspired patterns work together .  It was such a fun way to combine different SVG files into one project while keeping everything cohesive.

A little bit of this, a little bit of that… and whole lot of Bee Happy!

Pumpkin Favor Box 2

Leave a comment

Hello, crafty friends! This is Lindsay (Lindsay’s Layouts), sharing a project for the Lori Whitlock Creative Team. I’m hosting a baby shower for a dear friend, and I needed some favor boxes for the attendees to take home with them. I chose the Pumpkin Favor Box 2 (svg, silhouette) and used the “Special Delivery Baby Girl” collection, designed by Lori for Echo Park. The colors in the collection are perfect for a fall baby shower! I also used some kraft and dusty rose cardstock for the bases. Let me walk you through my process:

First, I uploaded the project into Design Space. I cut enough pieces to make 12 boxes. The first photos show a single set of cut pieces. I numbered the flaps in the order that I would fold them into the box. Then I added strong tape to the flaps as shown below.

I wanted more of an open gift bag feel for the favors, so I decided to fold two of the flaps into the box and adhere. This keeps them out of the way. I inked all of my pieces with brown ink and then began assembly. I used foam adhesive to pop up the center of the pumpkin.

I folded all of the panels and adhered the favor box base. Then I wrapped the rose cardstock belt piece around the base. All that’s left is the pumpkin, some cute ribbon and the surprises that will be tucked inside!

The next time you are hosting a party or shower, I hope you’ll consider these quick, adorable favor boxes. They can be customized for any occasion. It was also very easy to make bulk quantities. Thanks for stopping by today! Happy Crafting! — Lindsay
