Hello Crafty Friends, Noelene with you today. I want to share with you a cute little A2 Easel card from Lori Whitlock called Fall Squirrel (SVG) (Silhouette) .
Happy Thursday, everyone! Recently, I learned a fun thing that I wanted to pass along to everyone. A lot of collections now have stencils you can get to match the paper line. Check out Echo Park’s Vroom line. I used this stencil to create a cute embossed element on my card.
How fun is it to emoboss with these stencils?!?!
It’s super easy and the result is so fun. I still have an old school Cuttlebug but I know you can layer your Big Shot plates a very similar way.
What you will need:
Layer your mats and stencil like below (my mats are well loved). You will build from bottom up. A mat on bottom, B mat, shim, rubber mat (or extra shims), paper, stencil, B mat. Run it through your embossing machine.
I used one of Lori’s nested star (Silhouette)cuts on my card as the embossed element.
Here is a close up of the embossed star with some added ephemera for layering.
And of course lots of dimensionals to give the card depth.
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Are you enjoying cooler temperatures yet? It’s still pretty warm around here, but everyone is ready for some fall colors, weather, sweaters, and treats. Here is a fun fall themed box card (SVG, Silhouette).
1. First cut all the pieces.
2. Assemble the card front as well as the leaves and flower layer.
3. Assemble the card piece by adhering the glue tab.
4. Add the front card piece to the front, the leaves piece to the middle, and the blank card piece to the back of the card.
This is such a fun card to make. Look for other fall cards in Lori’s shop. Enjoy.

Hello friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the Box Card Teacup Fall Raccoon (SVG, Silhouette). This box card works well for any fall occasion, but I will be using it as a birthday card.
For the teacup I cut an extra cup piece without the handle to give my cup a two-toned look. I folded the score lines of the box portion of the card as mountain folds and the racoon tabs as valley folds. The raccoon insert tabs are glued to the shortest sides of the box. I lined up the tabs of the insert with the score lines and the top of the inside of the box. With one side secure I added glue to the back of the second tab of the insert then folded the box over making sure everything was lined up. Once the tab was secure, I flipped the card over and added glue to the box tab and folded the back of the box over making sure everything was lined up before the glue set.
I then added glue to the front of the box and lined the bottom edge of the cup with a handle to the bottom edge of the box making sure the corners line up. With my extra decorative cup piece, I glued the raccoon hands and flowers into place and glued it to the front of my card. Then I glued the back piece of the cup to the back of the box. Lastly, I glued the racoon tail to the back of the racoon insert making sure the card would fold flat. I also used a white acrylic pen to give my raccoon some highlights.
