Turkey Fry Box

Hi there paper crafting friends!  It’s Michelle Starcher, aka the Bookish Designer, hopping onto the blog to share the Thanksgiving gratitude box I made using the Fry Box Turkey (SVG, Silhouette).  This box creates the cutest little turkey that can be filled with notes and treats.  

When assembled, the Fry Box Turkey measures 4.25×1.5×8.25 when cut at original size, but it can be sized up or down as needed.   It’s super easy to assemble.  Before I assembled the fry box, I adhered all the pieces for the turkey’s face and hat to the fry box base.  Next, I use distress inks to add a little dimension to the feather pieces and then layered them together.  After assembling the box, I added the partial feather insert into the box and used it to line up the main plumage to the back of the box.  I filled the box with little gratitude cards, but you can fill with pretty much anything that fits.  

There are several turkey themed gift boxes available in Lori’s shop if you are looking for some last minute Thanksgiving ideas.  Be sure to check out Lori’s selection of Thanksgiving cut files in the shop.

Until next time,

3D Pumpkin Pie Tutorial

Hi Everyone,

I can’t believe that it is the week before Thanksgiving!  Today I have a tutorial showing how I assembled Lori’s 3D Pumpkin Pie (SVG, Silhouette).  I’m going to fill them with chocolates and put my pie on the dessert table on Thanksgiving.    To piece mine together, I used a few of Lori’s Echo Park Paper collections including  A Slice of Summer, Let’s Go Anywhere, All About a Girl and  Halloween Party.  This file is also a part of the November Kit of the Month in Lori’s SVG shop.  It’s a great bundle, be sure to check it out!

These are the pieces that come with the file, they make 2 slices.  If you want to make a full pie, you will need to cut enough for 8 slices.   I used some acetate for the hearts on the pumpkin pie box and some white and cream hearts for the other types of pie.

I glued the acetate or solid color heart onto the box’s top before I glued it together.  To assemble the tops and bottoms, fold all score lines in the same direction, shape into the triangle slice and glue the sides using the tabs.  Glue the pie crust piece onto the outer edge of the pie’s cover.

This photo shows the three box pieces ready for the pie crust to be glued onto the end of the pie.

Here is a side view of the pumpkin pie box assembled and ready for treats.

I like pumpkin pie but also like other kinds!  I decided to make blueberry, cherry, lemon and chocolate cream slices!  The sky is the limit for what kind of pie you want to make.

Hugs,

Anita

Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Snowman Tutorial

Have you seen the new Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Bundle?  There are nine designs… and each is cuter than the next!  I put together the Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Snowman file (SVG, Silhouette) for my post today.  It’s one of my favorites from the bundle.  These cards are super easy to assemble, I’ve included a quick tutorial as well.  Take a peek…

How cute is that little snowman??  Below, I have outlined the assembly steps….

To start I cut out all the pieces of the file.  On one side of the base I added the decorative panels, bow and the print and cut sentiment. I flipped the card base over and added the blue sky piece to the inside of the base. Next I added some adhesive to the two tabs (circled)  It’s just easier to add the adhesive at this point.   The inserts come next.  For this card the back insert is the one with the houses and church.  I inserted the tabs on either side of the insert into the backmost slots on both sides.  It takes a little wiggling, but they slide in and stay put!

Then I added the second snowman insert into the front group of slots.  Once both inserts were in place, I folded down the card so that it laid flat and the tabs with the adhesive were facing up and flat.  To finish I simply folded over the front of the card, and pressed down to secure the tabs to the front panel of the card.  So easy!

This card will fold flat for mailing and fits into a standard A7 envelope (5.25″ x 7.25″).

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