A2 Pop Dot Cards Tutorial

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing a quick assembly tutorial for the new pop dot cards that Lori will soon be adding to her shop.  These cards are so fun to put together and look really cool!  I love the dimensional look of these.

When you cut out your card you will end up with these pieces.

To asseble the card, first glue the orange layer behind the gray layer. Next, apply the black layer to the gray layer with foam dots.  Using more foam dots, apply the purple layer to the front of the card.

The finished look is really cool!  Lots of dimension and layers.

Be sure to check out the SVG Shop for these fun new cards.

Give Thanks Card with Kathy

Hi Everyone!  It’s Kathy today with a fun Thanksgiving card I created using a couple of Lori’s files…take a peek…

I love Lori’s card bases because you can use them for any type of card… just change the papers and embellishments to suit your needs and you can use them for Birthday, Holidays, Get Well, you name it!  For this card, I used the 5 x 7 Shutter Card (here in Silhouette Store), then added the Thanksgiving Turkey (here in the Silhouette Store).  It came together quickly and I love how it turned out!  That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Summer Fun Cards with Cathy

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you today and I have a couple of fun summer shaped cards to share with you.  Both cards feature Lori’s Echo Park I Love Sunshine collection!  I love this collection, so many fun colors and patterns with super cute chipboard!  The ephemera pack is so fun, so many elements to create with.

I first created this side step card.  So easy to create and just a little bit of fun to brighten someone’s day.  This card fits easily into an A2 envelope with it’s clever folds.  I just added papers, chipboard and ephemera pieces from the I Love Sunshine collection!  After, I created this card…I saw that there were a bunch of new designs from Lori on the Silhouette Design Store, so I had to make just one more.

How cute it the A2 Shaped Sun Card?  So easy, I just added a couple of stickers and embossed some card stock for the center of the sun. Again, all of these goodies including that fun polka dot washi tape is from Lori’s Echo Park I Love Sunshine collection.  There are a bunch of new cards in Lori’s Shop and in the Silhouette Design Store.

Thanks so much for joining us today.  I hope you have a bright sunshine filled day!

Father’s Day Work Bench Pop Up Card with Mendi

Hello there!  It’s Mendi here today with a Father’s Day card using Lori’s adorable Work Bench Pop Up Card cutting file.
Lori’s card design focuses on the inside of this card so I wanted to show you how I embellished the front.  I decided to enlarge a few of the tools found on the inside and pair them with a banner from Lori’s Journaling Shapes 2 set and a custom sentiment using her Friendly Font.
While this card is adorable all on it’s own, I wanted to find a way to dress it up and make it my own so I decided to stamp the workbench with a woodgrain background stamp and to add a fun checkerboard floor by cutting extra 1/2″ black squares on my Silhouette.  I finished off my card with a sentiment stamp from Lawn Fawn’s Happy Everything set.
Let’s face it… Making cards for men can be tough, but Lori has a number of fun, interactive cards that are perfect for Father’s Day.  You can find this card along with many other good choices in her shop HERE.
Thanks for dropping by today!

June Link Up with Cathy

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you hosting this month’s link up party with my favorite Lori Whitlock files from her SVG Shop and the Silhouette Design Store.  To be eligible to win this month’s link up party you must use one of Lori’ files.

My very favorite part of being on Lori’s creative team is all of the amazing shaped cards she creates.  They are all so cute and so much fun!  Everyone loves to receive a shaped card, just so unique and special!  This month I used Echo Park’s Summer Bliss designed by Lori..a gorgeous summertime collection.  I created two cards to share with you today!

They are just too cute!

I used Lori’s Blender Shaped card for my first card, you can find this card on the Silhouette Design Store here.  I used my Silhouette Sketch pen around the inside of the yellow just to set it off a bit and inked all the edges in coordinating colors.  I couldn’t resist popping up the yellow to give it some more dimension and then adding the sequins just for fun!

I just adore these cards, there are lots of new ones this past week and you have to check out Tya’ post here with the toaster and scale cards.  So cute.  My second card is the lemonade glass shaped card and you can find the link on the Silhouette Design store here.  I used the same color scheme to match my blender card.  Again, using the sketch pens to enhance it just a bit and more fun sequins, then finished with a real paper straw for more dimension!

Thanks for joining me today! I hope you are inspired to created some summer fun with any of Lori’s files…anything summertime goes!  Link up and play…we can’t wait to see what you create and you could win a $15.00 gift certificate to Lori’s SVG Shop.
