Today I am showcasing this fun XL Box Card Flower Truck.
SVG/Silhouette
You can make this card with a Silhouette or Cricut machine. I’m going to show you today what it looks like in the Silhouette Studio software. When you open the file in Silhouette, it looks like this:
From here, right mouse click on the truck and select ungroup. You can then move the individual pieces around and group the pieces by color for cutting.
Cut each color on your paper or cardstock. I actually cut some of the decorative pieces from vinyl, it readily sticks to the cardstock base. I arranged many of the small pieces on the same mat and placed scrap vinyl for each color:
I used the print and cut function for the “Flower” sign and the Mom license plates. After you have all your pieces cut out, it’s time to assemble:
It is helpful to have the product picture, so you can arrange all the pieces correctly. You will want to place the bottom skinny strip of silver at the bottom of the truck before you place the darker purple pieces.
Once you have all these pieces decorated, it’s time to assemble the card. The square-ish pieces with the license plates are the front and back of the truck. You glue them to the sides to form the “box” of the card. Apply adhesive to the tabs and attach those at each end of the truck sides. Once you have the box formed, apply adhesive to the tabs on the flower insert piece. Slide that into the box, centering it and press the glue tabs to the front and back pieces to secure. Done!
You could use this as a Birthday card. You could also change out the “Mom” for Sis or a name. It’s east to personalize for someone special.
