3D Pocket Explosion Box Tutorial

Happy almost Halloween, everyone!  Yes, my very favorite time of the year to create. Today I’m sharing a fun tutorial for one of Lori’s adorable designs — the Pocket Explosion Box (SVG, Silhouette)  I love how quickly and easily this project comes together.

EEEEK!  It’s so cute!
First, start with cutting all your pieces.  Here is the outside of the box and the lid.
This is the inside layer of the box, the little purple pocket like folders.
And the lid.

After cutting all your pieces, start assembling.  I started with the little file folders, just fold on the score lines and just use your regular adhesive to put them together.
There are 4 total of these little cuties.
This is the inside of the first layer, the black star print is on the other side. Adhere a folder to each side.
So it looks like this!
Next, create the inside layer of your box.  You just fold over and adhere, it makes the cutest little library type pockets.  Just add adhesive to the bottom square on the opposite side and adhere to your first layer.
Now you just get to have fun and go to town with all the little embellishments.
Just open and this little box just explodes with fun!  Adorable!
Thank you for joining us today!

Mrs Santa Slip Lid Box

Hello Crafty Friends, Noelene here today. I know most of you are preparing for Halloween but in my house it’s never too early to start preparing for Christmas. Today I want to share with you one of the newest files I am using from Lori Whitlock called Mrs Santa Slip Lid Box (SVG).
I started out by cutting all my pieces then glued on the corresponding panels to the top & bottom box sections like pictured. I folded the score lines first as this helped me to correctly align when I glued down. I left the glasses till last as I found this was easier to glue in place once box was made.
Next I started to put together the lid of the box glueing the flaps of the hat to the head, starting with the front then working from sides & finishing off at the back.
Now glue the hair panel on the back of the lid.
Then glue down the white strips of hat trim along the top.
The next step is to assemble the base of the box. Start by glueing down the side flap.
Then finish off by folding down the inside large rectangle base followed by glueing the 2 small side bases on it & then glue the outer rectangle flap over the top of the small side 2.
Lastly I glued on my glasses which I cut with gold metallic cardstock & embellished with a holly cutout onto the hat & 2 gold sprinkles for buttons.

Box Card Bottles Father’s Day with a Twist

Hello everyone! Today I’m showing you a Father’s Day card I turned into a birthday day card. I used this file, SVG or Silhouette.

I edited the text box to accommodate what I needed the card for, a birthday.

I used some dot cardstock from Bazzill and some metallic cardstock on the bottle caps.

I love these little box cards. They’re always so easy to assemble and the recipients always love them.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!

Box Card Envelope Ghost

October is creeping closer… and you know what that means Halloween is just around the corner!!

I’m in love with all the spooky decorations, so of course Halloween cards simply cannot be missed.

Luckily, the shop is filled with Halloween files, including “Box Card Envelope Ghost” which I’m thrilled to share with you today!

For this project, I played with design paper from Doodlebug Designs and topped it off with my absolute favorite: glitter cardstock.

Because let’s face it, Halloween stars deserve a little extra sparkle in the dark.

I added some foam tape under the pumpkin and the bat, for extra dimension.

And of course, the card can be folded flat for mailing!

Do you make your own Halloween cards?

Don’t keep them hidden in the shadows, be sure to share them online!

I love getting inspired by your creations.

The file I used is included in this amazing bundle

Happy Crafting,
