Sew Happy Jar with Anita

Happy Monday everyone.

Anita here with a quick gift that I made for a dear friend.  She is my quilting buddy and I filled this jar with goodies for her.  I used some adorable cut files from Lori’s store and papers from her amazing Echo Park collection called Perfect Princess.  The cut files that I used are the 4 Vintage Buttons and 4 Christmas Tags files.   You can find the Vintage Button files here in Lori’s  store and here in the Silhouette Store.  You can also find the Christmas Tag files here in the Silhouette Store.    Here are some views of the button on the top and the tag.  I also used embellishments from  Lori’s Celebrate Easter   collection, including the Paper Clip Bows and Enamel Dots.

Hope you are having the best summer ever and be sure to check out Lori’s files for all your summer celebration needs.

Hugs,

Anita

Dream Big Little One Light Box with Anita

Anita here with a quick tutorial to use some of Lori’s adorable phrase files in a fun and different way.  I used the file called Dream Big Little One 2 which you can find here in Lori’s wonderful shop and here in the Silhouette store.  I used files similar to these to embellish some baby onesies.  When I found this box at a craft store I knew I could make something cute with it.  I used Lori’s brand new Echo Park Collection called Perfect Princess.  It is a very sweet line.

Here are the materials for this project.  I used some fun milk paint which was so soft and pretty, and some Mod Podge at the end to seal my letters, stars and moon onto the project.

Here is a photo of the top of the box.

Here is a photo of the front of the box.  You can see how cute this paper line is.

This is a photo of the top of the box with the light on.  It runs on two AA batteries.

That’s it for me today.  Be sure to check out Lori’s store for this and many other amazing cut files.

Hugs,

Anita

Baby Insta-Cube Card

Anita here with a card that Lori created that is just so easy to put together and will have the recipients saying, “oooh and aaaah.”  I used Lori’s new cut file called Insta-Cube Card Baby which you can find here in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Store.  She has other designs of this adorable box card and  a fabulous tutorial which shows you how easily assemble the files.  Here is the link to the tutorial on Lori’s YouTube Channel.  For papers,  I used Lori’s new Echo Park Collection called Perfect Princess.

Here is the box with the card most of the way out.

When you pull the card all the way out of the box it pops into a cube.  You will have to watch the tutorial to see the secret on how this pops open on its own.

Here is the second side of the cube.

That’s it for me today.  Thanks for looking and have a great week.

Hugs,

Anita

4th of July Firecracker with Anita

Anita here today with a tutorial on how to make Lori’s 3D Firecracker.  You can find this file in her SVG shop here and here in the Silhouette Store.  I also used some parts of the 5X7 Box Card July 4th to add to the embellishments of my project.  You can find that file  here in Lori’s store and here in the Silhouette Store.  I love to mix and match Lori’s Echo Park collections on my projects and used I Love Winter and Go See Explore.

Here are the materials that I used for my project.

The firecracker wick is perforated so that you can fold the wick into a small square and then put it through the hole.

Next you are going to fold the tabs back and glue them to the inside of the cover of the tube.

Here is what is looks like from the front.

Next, fold down the tabs on the cover piece and glue them to one of the circles.  One of the extra red circles gets glued to the inside of the top to hide the tabs and glue.

Here is a photo of the Stickles that I put on the edges of the wick.

Repeat the process for the tube body.  This photo shows the red circle inside and I love the finished look.

Here is a close up photo of the embellishments.  I used the 4th of July circle from the box card.

That’s it for me today.  This is so cute and you can fill it with candy or leave it empty and on your table for a holiday centerpiece.

Hugs,

Anita
