I designed these little 3×3 Valentine Pop Up Cards for kids to make. They are so easy to assemble and absolutely adorable when done. I think the dinosaur is my favorite! Above is a simple instruction sheet so you can see how to assemble this card.

This cute Heart Petal Box features a heart closure and is just the right size to fill with treats for Valentine’s day. It’s created from a single piece which makes it super easy to put together.

Valentine Trio

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you today to share a Valentine Trio of Treat Holders created by Lori Whitlock!  I used papers and stickers from 3 of Echo Park’s collection designed by Lori…Fine & Dandy, We Are Family, and Here & Now.  I needed to create Valentines for my favorite little people.  I know they will love these!  I used the 3d heart cracker box, 3d heart pocket and the adorable 3d mini mailbox files.  These are all linked to the Silhouette Design Store!

The 3D heart cracker box is so cute and easy to put together.  Just one row of adhesive, tie one end and fill will candy…then tie the other end!

And how cute is this 3D mini mailbox?  And again so easy to put together!  Really, you can make all of these in no time at all and have a jump start on all of your Valentine goodies.

Lots of room for all kinds of candies and chocolate!

Next up, this fun 3D heart pocket!  Gorgeous and ready to fill with treats!

There is so much room, that I still need to go buy more goodies to put inside and keep some others from sneaking treats early!

Make sure to stop by the Lori Whitlock Shop to check out all of her amazing Valentine files.  There are so many to choose from and they are all adorable!

Link Up with Corri – Love

Hi everyone!  Corri here today with a fun new Link Up Party!  I’ve chosen “Love” as our theme this time.  My projects are for Valentine’s Day but you could link up a wedding themed project, an anniversary card or a layout about something or someone you love.    Just make sure to use one of Lori’s files on your project.

Here’s what I made…

I used paper from the Echo Park – Lucky in Love Collection for my projects.    I love the addition of the teal on this pattern paper.

This adorable Heart Cracker box would make a perfect gift.  Just filled with some candy and it’s ready to go.

 

And who wouldn’t love this pretty Heart Pocket? You can tuck a couple of mini candy bars inside and a note.  I reduced the file to 75% and it’s still a nice size.  These would also be great for class room treats.  You could reduce them and fit four to a sheet of 12 x 12 paper.

We can’t wait to see what you make!  Link up for a chance to win a $15 gift card to Lori’s SVG shop!

Page Layout with Traci

Hi everyone, it’s Traci and I’m glad to be back on Lori’s blog today to share a page layout with you.  I ran across these wonderful pictures of my nieces so I decided to create a sister page with a bit of a Valentine twist.  Lori’s Heart Polaroid Frames were the starting point for me.

I also love this twisted border.  You can cut the two pieces in any colors you want and then wrap them around each other to create the twist effect — super simple and adds a fun look to the page.  For my title, I cut letters out using Lori’s Bubble Letter Font.  This is the perfect font for nice chunky letters that show up great on a page!

Finally, I wanted one more design along the bottom of my page so this family border did the trick.  I hope you like the design and I’ve given you some ideas to use on your next project!  I would love for you to stop by my blog at Artsy Albums and say hello!
