St. Patrick’s Favor Box & Game

Happy Wednesday!  I hope everyone is having a great week!    Did you know that Monday was National Children’s Craft Day?  It got me thinking about my grandchildren and how much they love games and stickers.  It gave me an idea for today’s project … one of Lori’s adorable little treat boxes (links below) filled with a set of matching game cards.

First, I made the adorable box.  I love this file because you can cut 2 boxes on one sheet of 12×12 card stock! It’s super simple and quick to put together and you can add any embellishments to the front.  I found these cute Doodlebug stickers in my stash and they worked perfectly.  And isn’t the heart shaped handle cute!!?

You can fill this cute treat box with candy, gifts, or a fun little game.  I just cut out 2.75″ x 2.75″ squares from green card stock, layered them with white card stock and added the stickers.  Since it’s a matching game, you’ll need two sets of identical stickers 🙂 

You could also get your little ones involved and let them put the stickers on the cards!  They will have fun with the stickers and then they will have a game they helped to create!  Win win!

I hope this project sparks some creative ideas for you this week!  Here are links to the adorable 2 on 12 x 12 Heart Favor Box (SVG, Silhouette).

Happy St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow!

3D Clover Décor Tutorial

Hi there! Have you jumped on tiered tray bandwagon yet? I have! And have had a lot of fun making décor items for it. Lori has a new group of files for St. Patrick’s Day home décor that are perfect for a tiered tray. You can find it in her shop here. Today I’m going to show you how to assemble the 3D Clover (SVG, Silhouette).

I started by cutting all of the pieces. In the file there is only one side of the clover, but you will need to cut two. I also wanted two layers of the front decorative panel, so I customized a piece by making an internal offset and cutting that out as well.

I folded all of the tabs. Most of the folds are mountain folds. The very middle score line is a valley fold as well as the tab on the end.

The middle valley fold will be in the middle of each of the clover petals.

With some liquid glue I secured the first tab. I like to get a good anchor established before moving around the rest of the petal.

Then added glue to the next few tabs and secured them to the clover petals.

I repeated the process for the other two petals.

Once I had the other two petal edges complete, I glued the end tabs in place. It would also work really well to glue all of the edge strips together then glue them to the front of the clover. Rather than doing each petal separately.

For the back piece I just went for it and added glue to all of tabs and laid the cover on top while I adjusted and lined up all the edges. It would probably be easier to anchor one tab then add the glue to the rest of the tabs and adjust/line up as needed.

The last bit is the best part. I inked the all the edges. I glued all the decorative panels on the outside edges. I used my sewing machine to stich the two front decorative panels together. I added a rolled flower (SVG, Silhouette) and a few gold sequins.

And don’t forget, there’s a sale happening now in Lori’s SVG Shop!  Get 30% off all SVGs, Fonts, Pattern Fills & Commercial Licenses when you use code MAR2022 at checkout.  Don’t miss out, sale ends Saturday!
