Flower Card with Brandie

Hi there friends! Brandie here with a cute flower card I made with the Shaped Card Flower 1 file. (SVG, Silhouette). This card comes together very easily and can be cut in any color to reflect the time and season.

I added a few extras to the base file of this card.  I cut the petals three times in concentric layers and the flower center twice. I then stitched through the petals for added texture and detail.

This card will defiantly brighten someone’s day. Thanks for stopping by today!

Watering Can Bouquet Box Card tutorial with Cathy

I love all of Lori’s box cards, they are super cute, fold flat to mail and are super easy to put together.  I thought I would walk you through the process.  It seems like there are a lot of pieces to cut and put together, but they really are simple and are super quick to assemble with adorable results.

This is Lori’s Watering Can Bouquet card, you can find it here in Silhouette or here in Lori’s shop.  Super cute and perfect for just about any occasion.

I first opened up the file in the picture below, next I sorted the file by color.  I love that Lori designs her files in color, so it is so easy to divide and cut by color.  It makes things go so much faster.

After all my pieces were cut, I inked all the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Inks and scor-tape is your best friend for these box cards, paper thin and super sticky.  First adhere the box of your watering can together and then add then handles and spout to the two pieces with the coordinating slots.

You now should have a shape that looks like the first box below.  Now it’s time to add all your embellishments to your layers, which Lori makes it so easy as she numbers them 1, 2, 3.  Just layer your embellishments following the pattern and picture from the file.  Add scor-tape to each perforated and scored side.  I always start with number 1 and then add number 3.  Then I know that they are perfectly spaced before I add number 2 in the middle.   Run your finger along each side of pieces 1,2,3  to make sure they are really stuck down well.  It really is as easy as 1,2,3!

In no time at all you are done and have the cutest dimensional card ever.  Lots and lots of box cards to choose from in both stores.
