5×7 Shutter Card Tutorial

Happy Thursday everyone!! I’m here with a quick and easy tutorial for you all today.

Here in South Dakota, at least my side of the state, we still haven’t had any snow. So I created this fun little shutter card in hopes of encourging the snow to fly. We also all need a reminder that even the easiest cards bases can turn out super cute and detailed. I used the 5×7 Shutter Card found here…(SVG, Silhouttte). Its such a fun little card base. My paper is from Echo Park Company. It’s Lori Whitlock’s Winter Fun line found HERE.

As usual, get all your pieces cut and organized.

The base itself gets folded on the score lines like the below photo.

Add your first patterened paper to the base remebering there is a bit of a mat on the base so don’t line your patterned paper to the edge.

Go ahead and add your 2nd patterened paper like shown.

And add your white piece to the center. I did use some pop dots to pop mine up a little.

Decorate your card as you see fit. I used some chipboard stickers and some regular stickers. Again, I used pop dots to give my cute fox some dimention. I also added some enamel dots for a little more fun and detail on the card.

How cute is this card with such a simple and easy card base?!

Transform Lori Whitlock’s 3D Valentine Houses SVG Bundle Into Winter Décor

Hi everybody, it’s Holly! Today, I’m excited to share a fun “diy” project with you, showcasing the 3D Valentine House Bundle from Lori Whitlock. I’ve turned the Valentine houses into Winter houses. I added some tea lights inside to make the houses light up and it just looks so cute up on my mantle. The warm lights inside the houses adds such a calming peaceful feeling. I made my houses with the I love Winter Collection also from Lori Whitlock. Go in and check out these files, links below.

Cookies For Santa Layout

And the countdown to Christmas is on! Who’s ready? NOT ME!! But I did take a great cookie decorating class recently to have some cute Christmas cookies and what a better way to show everyone the cookies than creating a layout!

I used the Echo Park Paper line that Lori designed called Santa Claus found HERE.

I used 3D Cookies For Santa SVG from Lori’s website found HERE. But instead of making it a card, I added a background to the words and used it as a title. I cut one of the cookies and turned it into a shaker piece for one of my embelishments.  The rest of my embelishments were sickers and chipboard pieces from the paper collection.

Shaped Shadow Box Card Polar Bear Tutorial

 Happy Holidays everyone!  I have a quick and easy little shadow box to share with you.  It’s Lori’s Shaped Shadow Box Polar Bear.  This is the sweetest little bear.  I created this with just some card stock and Lori’s new Echo Park Winter Fun collection.  This little shadow box goes together like Lori’s box card envelope cards.  So super duper easy.

You can find the file here in the Silhouette Design Store, also.

First, start with cutting out all your pieces.

Then I put together his little face.
Then add your tree cutout to the back layer.
Flip over the two layer pieces and add double sided adhesive on each piece.
Also, add the blue snow piece to the very back of the box.  Adhere the two pieces together to form your box and then next add the tree layer, then to the village scene.
Then you get the sweetest little shadow box….I just finished it with all the darling elements from the Winter Fun collection.  He’s just adorable!  I can’t wait to make more.
Thanks for joining us today!
