Box Card Easter Bunny and Chick Carrot Car Tutorial

Hi! Are you ready for spring yet? Here in Utah, the weather is undecided. We’ve had beautiful spring like weather and then the next day, snow. Fortunately, for us, it melted quickly! For me, spring and Easter are synonymous and with that I want to show you how to put together Lori’s adorable Box Card Easter Bunny and Chick Carrot Cars. Here are the Silhouette links: Box Car Easter Bunny Carrot Car and Box Car Easter Chick Carrot Car

To start with, I cut out all my pieces. I’m making multiples to send to my grandkids so there are many pieces.

I then inked a few of the pieces. I wanted my yellow accents on the chick to stand out a little. I also like to add a light gray to the white edges of the eggshell. And of course, orange and green to make the carrot pop.

I then glued the main base piece together. With making multiples, I didn’t want the seam to open up while I was working on the next piece so I clamped them together with a binder clip.

Then I added the layered pieces of the front and the back to the main base.

Next are the cute little drivers. I started with the eyes on the chick and then flipped it over to add the other pieces. With the bunny, I started with the ears and then the eyes.

Next, glue the character to the insert and then add the insert to the base with the tabs bent to the back. I like to flatten the card after adding the insert to make sure that the card will lay flat for mailing.

And that’s it! You have an adorable carrot car box card.

St. Patrick’s Day Cards

 Spring is almost here and Saint Patrick’s Day is just around the corner too. Lori designed the cutest collection for Echo Park Happy Saint Patrick’s Day.  Just so fun and filled with the sweetest prints and little leprechauns!  I used this collection to make both of the cards that I am sharing with you today.

First is Lori’s French Door Easel Card – St Patrick or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.  I had never tried one of these French door cards before, super fun and lots of files to choose from.  I, of course, swapped out the leprechaun for a sticker in the collection that I loved.  These cards are fast and easy to put together. Just another fun way to display a handmade card.

And next, a box card, which is my favorite along with the envelope cards.  This is Lori’s Box Card Gnome Shamrock or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.  Again, I removed the gnome and replaced it with the cute little leprechaun sticker and some other fun bits from the Echo Park collection.  He’s just so cute standing in his field of shamrocks.

 

Wishing you all a very lucky day!

Wrap St. Patrick Cookie Topper

Hi all!

I work in a small office and I try to do some kind of cute little treat for all the ladies in the office on holidays. When I saw this cute little wrap I knew it would be the perfect office treat.

I started with my supplies. Because I would be making a few of these I decided to use the sticker sheet that matches the Echo Park Happy St. Patrick’s Day paper line by Lori instead of the little pot of gold that comes with the file. I used the cut file called Wrap St. Patrick (SVG, Silhouette).
First, I scored the long sheet.
Added a few pop dots (dimensionals) to the back of my sticker.
Then I added my sticker to the little black cut-out (pointy tweezers are a great helper here).
 I used a cello bag and put some sugar cookies in it (They kind of look like golden coins).
Here is the tricky part, put the top of your bag through the round hole.
Fold up the side with the 2 slits and run your ribbon or bakers twine through a slit, around your cookies, and back through the 2nd slit and tie in a cute bow.
Add your little black cutout and sticker accent piece to the front and you have a darling little treat.
Happy Crafting!
