Home Sweet Home with Cathy

Hi everybody!  I can’t believe August is here already, Summer is flying by so quickly.  I have a fun project for you today, that you can create in no time.  I have a farmhouse theme in my townhouse, lots of black and white and to be quite honest I have an obsession with Rae Dunn products.  I just love all the things.

I got these little wood house shapes that are approximately 4 by 5 inches at the craft store and painted two white and one black.  Then I was just going to let them be, until I was looking through fonts here in the Silhouette Design Store and found this Thankful Font (SVG, Silhouette) I instantly knew this was font I wanted to use.  Perfect!  I just cut the words “Home Sweet Home” from black and white vinyl and applied to my little wooden houses.  So cute, I’m thrilled with how they came out!  I will be using this font for several more little projects I have spinning in my head.

A super fast project to go with the Summer that is flying by!  Thanks for stopping by today~Cathy

Swimming Through the Summer

Hi there paper crafting friends!  It’s Michelle Starcher, aka the Bookish Designer, popping in on the blog to share the shadow box I made using Lori’s Slice of Summer collection by Echo Park Paper Co. I love all of the different shadow box cards available in Lori’s shop. There are so many great summer variations, including the Shadow Box Card Swimsuits (SVG, Silhouette).

I assembled the shadow box card using the new and easy method. In the new shadow box design, the card base has side slits and the inserts easily lock in place with tabs. When you are assembling the Shadow Box Card Swimsuits, insert the Cloud slide in the back.  The sun goes in the middle and the grass slide goes in the front. Be sure to watch Lori’s “Shadow Box Card” video tutorial for assembly instructions.

Lori has so many wonderful summer-inspired files available in the shop, and I know you will find something you can’t live without. Happy crafting!

Until next time,

Michelle

3D Camper Tutorial

Hello crafty friends! Aimee here and I’m ready to share a tutorial on how to assemble the ever so adorable 3D Camper Father’s Day file (Lori’s SVG Shop, Silhouette).  As you can see this is clearly not a Father’s Day camper but a Summer camper. It really could be made for any season or occasion. So kick your flip flops off at the door and come on in my sweet camper and let me tell you how I made this!

To get started I picked out some beautiful papers from Echo Park Paper’s  A Slice of Summer collection and cut out all of the pieces.

Before I started assembly of the camper I adhered some of the pattern paper pieces to it. Start by folding on the score lines as it helps guide where to adhere the bottom camper pieces. For the windows, adhere the light blue pieces on the inside of the camper and then the curtains will fit just inside the boxes on the camper shell.

Then adhere the outside frames to the windows and door.

Next you will want to adhere the tabbed pieces to the main body of the camper piece. Lay pieces out and adhere them just as shown in the picture below.

Lift these pieces up until they meet and adhere them together. Next use your hands to shape these pieces to the contour of the camper shape and then add your adhesive to the solid tab on one side and every small tab piece on one side and adhere it to the main body piece of the camper. When that side is dry adhere the other side down.

The last piece is the hitch. The main piece is simply folding it and adhering the two pieces that are similar with one over lapping the other. Take the other piece (rectangle) and roll it up on the handle of a small paint brush. Adhere the end and roll it over to keep the entire piece adhered together. Then adhere the two pieces together.

Then adhere the completed piece to the bottom of the camper.

And now your camper is complete and ready for some embellishments. I found some butterfly stickers in my collection and sprinkled them around because that’s how it is in my perfect camping world! LOL!!

Use this as a happy decoration in your camper or as a centerpiece at a Summer BBQ…how cute would that be? This is fairly good size of decoration that measures 8.50″ tall and about 8″ wide and I promise you it will stand out no matter what you use it for.

That’s all from me today…how you all enjoy!
