Pop Up Birthday Card with Kathy

Hi Everyone, and Happy New Year!!  It’s Kathy today with one of Lori’s fun Pop Up Cards.  Around here, there are a lot of birthdays early in the year, so I thought I should get ahead and make some cards!! (instead of running to the store last-minute to buy a card….I’ll admit, it has happened a few times…)

I used Lori’s Pop Up Birthday Card file (here in the Silhouette Store) and some papers from her new Echo Park Collection, Little Man.  The colors are so bright and cheery, they were perfect for a Birthday card… take a peek…

I changed the file slightly by deleting the stars in the background.  I thought it would be fun to use her star paper in their place.  A hint when making this card… the folds can be daunting, but it’s easier if you start at the bottom.  You know that all of those folds go the same direction.  Fold all of the first folds the way they are supposed to go, then work your way through the rest of the folds… every other fold goes the same direction.  The best thing about this card, besides how cute it is, is that it folds nicely and fits into an A2 Envelope!  That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!

Ornate Pull Out Card with Corri Garza

Hi everyone!  Corri  here today sharing one of Lori’s new Ornate Pull Out Cards.     These cards are all beautiful with their die cut borders but are very easy to put together.

I used paper from the Story of Christmas Collection from Echo Park.  I used a clear sticker for my sentiment and added a couple of wood veneer snowflakes to finish it off.  Check out all the new pull out cards in the shop!

Hi everyone! It’s Tya up on the blog today! Hopefully you all had a wonderful October with all the Halloween festivities and fun that goes along with that! We are officially in November – one of my favorite months! Not only is it my birthday month, but I just love Thanksgiving! What a wonderful time it is to meet with friends and family and take time to reflect on all we are thankful for. I decided for my link up we will focus on giving thanks! Whether that is a festive Thanksgiving project or simply a beautiful thank you card to someone special – you decide!

For my project this month, I decided to add to my Thanksgiving decor and do a charger plate with one of Lori’s beautiful sayings on it. Here is the project-

I used some vinyl for the saying.I used this one- Give Thanks Vinyl

Lori has a few other great sayings in her shop that would be wonderful to use on a charger plate. Check some of them out over on her Shop. I added a few enamel dots from the Story of Fall enamel dot set to the flourish part of the saying for an added pop.

I added a couple of lovely 3 dimensional flowers to my plate. I used this flower and this flower. The Sunflower has a brad from the Story of Fall Collection Decorative Brad set in the middle.To finish off the plate, I added a thin twine rope with some hot glue to the plate.

That’s all there is to it ! This would make a great hostess gift if you are going to someone’s home for dinner, or just do as I did and add it to your own home decor.
