Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Snowman Tutorial

Have you seen the new Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Bundle?  There are nine designs… and each is cuter than the next!  I put together the Snowglobe Shadow Box Card Snowman file (SVG, Silhouette) for my post today.  It’s one of my favorites from the bundle.  These cards are super easy to assemble, I’ve included a quick tutorial as well.  Take a peek…

How cute is that little snowman??  Below, I have outlined the assembly steps….

To start I cut out all the pieces of the file.  On one side of the base I added the decorative panels, bow and the print and cut sentiment. I flipped the card base over and added the blue sky piece to the inside of the base. Next I added some adhesive to the two tabs (circled)  It’s just easier to add the adhesive at this point.   The inserts come next.  For this card the back insert is the one with the houses and church.  I inserted the tabs on either side of the insert into the backmost slots on both sides.  It takes a little wiggling, but they slide in and stay put!

Then I added the second snowman insert into the front group of slots.  Once both inserts were in place, I folded down the card so that it laid flat and the tabs with the adhesive were facing up and flat.  To finish I simply folded over the front of the card, and pressed down to secure the tabs to the front panel of the card.  So easy!

This card will fold flat for mailing and fits into a standard A7 envelope (5.25″ x 7.25″).

That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

5×7 Box Card House Merry Christmas Tutorial

Hi everyone!  Cathy here today to share a box card tutorial with you.  I’m always telling you that Lori’s box cards and envelope cards are my favorites to create, so I thought I would share my process for putting them together.  So easy and they are loved by everyone that receives them.  This is Lori’s new 5×7 Box Card House Merry Christmas (SVG, Silhouette).  The file also includes an envelope.  Remember, these fold flat for mailing and pop right back up for display.

Here is how the file looks when you first open it, I always ungroup everything and separate by color.  It make it easier for me to see what I need for paper and also how to arrange paper on my mat.          

You can see how I sorted everything out here.  Then I go back, group and cut my pieces.

After all your pieces are cut, fold the score lines on the red house pieces.
Next, I laid all my pieces out…flattened my red pieces and started to adhere the embellishments to the box.  I find easier to work with when it’s flat on a work surface. I used a glue pen for most of this detail work.
I start with adhering the gold window pieces to the inside of the house.
After I had most of the embellishments added, I then added scor- tape to the two ends.  You want a good strong adhesive to put these together.
So now you have created a little box or your little house and you are ready to add the inserts!
There are several of these house box cards in Lori’s shop, and I love that the little inserts make the roof, how incredibly clever.  The inserts are labeled 1 and 2.  The first insert just goes in as is.  Just add scor-tape on each side and insert into the box.  The cool part with these is you can’t go wrong as the roof line makes for perfect placement.
Now for the second insert, lay it flat and add your embellishments.  Again, I used a glue pen for this detail work.
This insert gets a bit heavier with all the extra paper added, so it has wider tab.  I added two strips of scor-tape for this insert.  Then just slide it down into the box, again you can’t go wrong cause the roof top will stop you.!

 

When you are all finished, you have this amazing little house.  I used Lori’s The Magic of Christmas to create this.  The Merry Christmas is from the brad set.  I did add the Santa in the Chimney Sticker for this collection.  I just simply couldn’t resist.  It was just too perfect not to add it.  Lol.
And don’t forget, all SVG files in Lori’s SVG shop are 30% off through Saturday, November 12th when you use code NOV2022 at checkout!
