Gnome Box Tutorial

There is a new Gnome Box Collection in the Lori Whitlock SVG store.  They are all so cute.  Here’s some quick tips about putting these together.

 

The gnome I pieced together can be found here in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, and at the Silhouette Design store here.

I used paper from Lori’s Little Lumberjack collection by Echo Park.

If you have a Cricut and a scoring tool or wheel, you will want to upload the Solid SVG file.  If you are using Silhouette or don’t have a scoring tool, you will want to use the Dashed Lines SVG file.

Here are all the gnome pieces.  There are gnomes on both sides of the box.

This is the box piece.  Notice that the gnomes will cover the sides of this box.  And you will see the pattern of this paper on the short side when completed.

Assemble all the gnome pieces on the flat box.

Then glue the box flaps together to complete the box.

 

This cute box could be used in a number of ways–class party craft, table name cards, or treat boxes.  Have fun creating!

6X6 Wiper Card Christmas Santa

 

 

Hi Everyone:

Anita here with a really fun new interactive Christmas card.  It is called 6X6 Wiper Card Christmas Santa and the file can be found here in Lori’s SVG store and here in the Silhouette store.  I followed along with Lori’s You Tube tutorial for assembling this card and you can find the video for this card here.  I used some wonderful Echo Park collections Lori has designed including Summer Adventure, Wish on a Star, Back to School, My Favorite Winter and Celebrate Christmas.  Lori has several different wiper card files for different occasions.

 

Best wishes for a magical holiday season.

Hugs,

Anita
