Today… I have a $1 digital scrapbooking kit over at Design House Digital. It’s called Spring Celebration and you can go look at it HERE. Better hurry, though, it won’t be $1 for long!

And, for those of you who don’t know or have not see it yet…. I debuted 4 collection at CHA with Echo Park this week. I attended CHA Sunday and Monday. I just have to say that I thoroughly enjoy being part of the Echo Park team!

I met 3 of my design team members in person… Carolyn, Corrie, and Tamara. That was awesome… along with meeting several other customers and friends. I’m excited to share with you all my new collections. Today I’ve created a gallery of  This & That Charming so you can see those patterns. Tomorrow I’ll show Graceful.

Sorry I can’t figure out how to remove the last 3 photos from the gallery!! If anyone knows… let me know ; )

Have a lovely day!

Valentine’s Ideas Blog Hop

Good morning and welcome to the Lori Whitlock Design Team Blog Hop! I’m so glad you found our little hop and have decided to join us. The Design Team has been working on all sorts of Valentine’s ideas for you.

So, let’s get this party started by first announcing a 25% OFF SALE HERE in the online shop. Simply use code LOVEU25 at checkout. Please email me at info@loriwhitlock.com with any problems you may encounter placing or receiving your order. I want everyone to get the files they’d like to order and I want to make sure they are working for everyone.

I think it’s time to give away some free cutting files to my awesome customers and fans! Each day through Sunday… I’ll be giving away a FREE shape here on my blog. The files are SVG, DXF, and STUDIO. So, no matter what machine you’re using… these files should work for you. These files are to say “thanks” to all my my blog readers! Without you… well… there’d be no reason to blog. So, thanks for reading and dropping by!

Now… last but not least… I want to share some cute Valentine’s ideas with you.
First up is a cute home decor idea using my “LOVE” banner cutting file found at Silhouette and HERE. What a great way to decorate a mantle, railing, window, etc. this month. Thanks Natalie for helping me get this project put together!!
Next, is a new valentine box project file that I created just for you today. It should be available in the Silhouette Online Store in the next couple of days. But, it’s available HERE in my online shop right now for the special price of 1.99 (that makes it $1.49 with the sale this weekend). I was thinking about a great way to gather Valentine Cards at home or at school. So, I came up with this large box (about 7.5x5x2) made of 2 sheets of paper with a slit in the top and a cute bracket closure. Simply use a piece of velcro to keep your box closed. I’m going to use this box for our family to write “love notes” to each other. Each night we’re going to open the box and read the notes that were given that day.
Thanks for visiting my site today. Feel free to leave comments. I love your comments. It keeps me going : )

Featured Projects

I wanted to say how impressed I am by all the darling projects using my cutting files and paper products that I see when I look around! I’d like to start sharing these when I find them here on my blog. Today I have three super cute box projects that I thought you might enjoy seeing. Hopefully these projects will help get the wheels turning and get you excited to create some fun boxes this winter and Valentine’s holiday.

The first project I have for you today is a super cute rendition of my “Adorable Box” by Jen Davis. I love the awesome red snowflake and red bow that Jen added. Just lovely.

 

The second project is a an awesome example of how cute my Candy Box with 4 dividers inside can be. This project is by Kelly Booth. Those candies look so delicious! Thank you, Kelly, for sharing this with us! And, just so you are aware, there are several sizes of the candy box that I offer. Just to clarify… they all fit the same size scalloped inserts. The scalloped inserts are separate little boxes that slip inside the larger box and act as a liner for your candy/treats. In my shop all the boxes come with the liner file. In the Silhouette Store, the boxes and the liner are separate downloads. But, the good news is… once you have the liner, it fits inside all the different candy boxes that I offer.

And, while we’re talking about how cute Kelly’s box is… she also created this darling box that holds the cutest little cards she made. Be sure to check out her original post HERE to see the whole project.

I hope you’re all doing well and having a fabulous January. I’ve been quite for a few days because my hubby and I took the kids on a vacation last week. It was so relaxing to get away with just my family for a few days and focus on them. I’m back in full swing now and am gearing up for CHA this weekend! I’m so excited to go to the show this year!! I’m releasing 4 new collections with Echo Park Paper at the show! I’ll be at the Echo Park booth… so if you’re there MAKE SURE you stop by and say “HI”!! I would love to meet each of you!

All of the files listed in today’s post can be found in my portfolio in the Silhouette Online Store if you’re a Silhouette user. And, if you use a different cutting machine, you can find them in my online shop here:

Candy Box
Scalloped Closure Box
Card Box (to be added to the shop on Wed.)

Have a great day!


 

New Today!

Yep… 12 new shapes today. Whew, I think I’m gonna sleep good tonight : )

My candy box with the inserts have been so popular that I thought I’d offer more boxes in that collection. These boxes are divided inside by cute little scalloped inserts. They’re perfect for housing candy or chocolates. Can’t you just picture one of these filled with different colored M&M’s for Valentines?

I also decided it was time to create a box that requires NO GLUE!! These little babies fold together and secure themselves in no time flat. So, if you’re creating several boxes for gifts and such… this is the way to go! You can thank me later ; )

I also created a Sliding Gift Box that has a bracket flap and when you open it…. there’s a little tray/drawer that slides out. This is a great box for giving money, gift cards, a mini album, a card, jewelry, etc. It’s super cute and fun to make.

Oh, and the chapstick holder… well it’s just plain cute and what a fun little packaging idea for a little gift? I hope it comes in handy for someone.

Feel free to share your ideas over on my facebook page! I absolutely LOVE it when you all post your projects so I can see the fun things you’re creating with my files. It keeps me inspired!! Thanks so much for dropping by!
