Hi there friends! I have been loving the Chickens collection by Echo Park Paper and wanted to use it again for another project. This barn box card is perfect for this paper collection (SVG, Silhouette). I added a cute chicken sticker to the front of the card for an additional embellishment. I think it is darling and will make a fun birthday card for someone special.
Thanks for stopping by today!

Good morning!! Today is National Refreshment Day. This beverage holiday toasts those moments of ice, cold refreshment. So what a better time to send one of these cute pineapple drink cards?! Today I will walk you thought the assembly. First cut allyour pieces and lay them out.
First I assembled the fruit and added score tape to the tabs. My paper is from Echo Park’s Little Things Mean A Lot collection.
Next is the base, add score tape to the tab like in the photo below.
Make your box by folding where the perforations are and adhering your score tape to the inside of the neighboring flap.
Add your dark brown piece to the light brown piece and then add both the back and front to the box making sure the small portion is on the bottom like below.
Once you have your front and back attached, fold the perforated tabs and line the top of the inset up with the top of the pineapple and adhere to the sides with your score tape.
Add the second insert and get ready to mail your refreshment!
Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
Summer Vibes & BBQ Invitations!
The first week of the summer holidays is behind us here in the Netherlands, perfect timing to dive into some summer creativity!
What better way to celebrate the summer than with good food, great company, and a little handmade magic? That’s why I created the “Shadow Box Card BBQ” – a fun and festive card that’s just bursting with summer vibes!
You can buy the file HERE in Lori her webshop, and its available in the Silhouette shop
This card is perfect for wishing someone a happy holiday, but let’s be honest… it’s even more fun to use it as a BBQ invitation for your friends and family! Imagine their faces when they open this cheerful card, packed with grill-goodness – it’s a guaranteed succes!
I absolutely love cards that are 3 dimensional and still fold flat to be sent in the mail, don’t you?!
So fire up the barbecue, grab your craft supplies, and let the summer fun begin. Whether you’re heading to the beach or staying close to home, there’s always room for a little handmade sunshine & good food with friends and family ☀️
Happy summer & happy crafting!

Hi. Today I’m sharing a tutorial for this adorable Big Box Card Lemonade Basket (SVG, Silhouette). Like the title says, this project is big and so fun. No problem cutting all the flower center pieces!
1. First cut all the pieces. If you are working in Silhouette Studio, remember to find all the white pieces that may be hiding behind a layer. Also think about any patterns you are using in your paper, and place them accordingly. Notice the direction of scalloped flap pieces. In this picture those pieces are a butterfly pattern. But you’ll notice later, I used the other side of the paper.
2. Layer all the pieces, using the finished project image as reference if needed. Aren’t the ice cubes so fun!
3. Adhere the basket panels onto the basket piece. Notice here that you will first fold down the basket flaps, and then adhere the scallop panels to the folded side. Here I decided to use the other side of the paper! Luckily these pieces are symmetrical so they fit perfect.
4. Time to assemble the basket. Glue the flaps together to form the basket. I used liquid glue for the flaps.
5. Now insert the pieces into the basket and glue the flaps to the sides. Do your best to evenly space out these flaps. They are numbered 1,2,3, so you can easily place them in the correct order.
6. Flatten the project and make sure the inside glue tabs are adhered well. And adhere the front banner and flowers on to the basket. Noting which panel is the front before adhering.
7. Tada! Enjoy your finished project. This is a fun one. You can find some other of these Big Box cards in the Shop. I used Lori’s Have a Great Summer Collection. You can pick up your favorite Big Box card during Lori’s Sale!
Hope you are having a great summer!
I was in the mood for a little tropical fun today so I am sharing these fun Lori Whitlock cut files.
