Baby Crib/Bed Pop Up Card Tutorial with Traci

Hi everyone!  It’s Traci from Artsy Albums back with you today to share a tutorial on assembling Lori’s adorable pop-up crib card!  This card is just precious, and so easy to put together. Get the Baby Crib Pop Up Card SVG file HERE. Get the Silhouette file HERE.

Start by cutting each of the pieces out of your favorite paper or card stock (I used THIS collection).  I cut my base out of solid white card stock and then cut it out again from pink pattern paper … cute “wallpaper” isn’t it?  For the pink, I trimmed the edges 1/8″ on each side to fit inside the white base card.

Next, glue your pieces together.   Glue the crib by adhering the two ends together into a rectangle.  Adhere the pieces of your base card together as desired.

In order to get the crib to “pop-up”, you will want to adhere the back left leg of the crib into the corner fold of your card, with the “back” of the crib adhered to the right side of the card, and the “left side” of the crib adhered to the left side of your card as shown below.  If adhered correctly on two sides, your crib should fold down when the card is closed and pop back up when the card is opened.

I “decorated” my room with cute stickers from my stash, and added Lori’s cute little shelf on foam adhesive for dimension.

Finally, assemble the front of the card.  I cut out the base card window shape a third time in order to get a cute pattern paper for the front of my card.  Then I cut the adorable little rattle out of card stock, tied a sweet ribbon around it, and added a few more stickers.  So cute!!

I hope this has given you a bit more direction on assembling this darling card!  Thanks for letting me share it with you.  Come visit me over at Artsy Albums sometime to say hi!

Vintage Screen Card with Cathy

Hi Everyone!  Cathy here with you today sharing a couple of cards created with Lori’s Carta Bella Yesterday Collection.  The first one features her new Screen Card with Flowers.  I am loving these new screen cards, there are 3 different ones to choose from; a wedding and baby cards along with this flower one.  Lots of fun layers with the Carta Bella Yesterday papers and embellishments.  You have four different screens to decorate….I chose to decorate three and will write my sentiment of the fourth screen.  I also chose to add the flowers included in the file on the third screen instead of the front.    The fun border on the bottom of the entire card was cut using a Designer Die from Carta Bella called Yesterday Edges.

And while I was in the vintage mood, I created on more card using A2 Tabbed Card & Sleeve Scalloped.  How cute is this file?!  Love the scallops and fun little envelope….perfect for turning the journaling cards in the collection into cute cards!

Thanks for joining us today!

You can find these files also in the

Chocolate Lovers Valentine Treats with Tya

Hello Lori Whitlock fans! It’s Tya here to share with you some yummy treat boxes using a few of Lori’s darling files. Do you know anyone who is a choc-o-holic? If so , then today’s post is for you! While I love all the mushy Valentine cards, and lovely flowers that accompany this holiday – in my opinion, Valentines Day is meant for CHOCOLATE! So I went through and chose 3 of my favorite little treat boxes and favors and added a yummy, different chocolate treat to each type. Let me show you what I did!

For this box I used the Candy Tote (LW Shop) (Silhouette Store). This little box was perfect and fit 4 Ghiradelli Chocolate squares.

This box uses the Tall Heart Gable box (LW Shop) (Silhouette Store). I added a small sheet of acetate to hold all of those yummy Hershey’s Kisses in. I loved the little heart shaped cut out in this box! Perfect for showcasing the chocolate!

This last box uses the 3D Candy Box with Window file (LW Shop) (Silhouette Shop). I filled this darling little box with M&M’s and added an acetate window to this box as well.

I used the adorable Lovebugs line from Doodlebug Design for all of my boxes.

Thanks so much for stopping by and if you have a chocolate lover for a Valentine – I am sure they would love any of these! Have a wonderful day!
