Beehive Box Card

What’s the buzz? The buzz is Lori has the cutest bee cards in Shop and the sweetest new Echo Park collection to create those designs with…Bee Happy. There are so many cute bee and beehive designs to choose from in her shop and you can find them in the Silhouette Design Store also. You can create endlessly with her files and this collection.

And of course, I chose a box card. You can find this adorable card here in Lori’s Store or here in the Silhouette Design Store. I used the Bee Happy collection for the flowers and the pieces on the beehive, and the bee is a little sticker from the collection also. I love this little hive, how sweet and cheery.  What a perfect way to brighten someone’s day!  I hope it brightened yours!

A2 Curved Pop Up Card Mother’s Day Tulips

Hi! Ashley here!

Today I’m sharing a curved pop-up card.  You can find these cards in Lori’s Shop and Silhouette Store.

First, cut all the pieces.

 

 

 

You can use print and cut for the sentiment panel.

 
Adhere the panel pieces and the flower pieces.

The sentiment panel goes on the back of the card.

Adhere the flower pot to the smaller card piece.  Adhere that piece to the card.

Adhere the rectangular piece to the front of the card.

There are several curved pop-up cards in Lori’s shop.

Thanks for reading.

Honey Jar Mini Album

Hello, my friends!  Traci here with a fun take on one of Lori’s brand new shaped cards.  I turned it into a mini album (and if you follow me, you know minis are my thing, LOL!). Lori’s adorable new Honey Jar card (SVG, Silhouette) inspired me to turn the card into pages!  Check it out …

 

 
I started with the cutting file base and cut it out 3 times.  Then, instead of folding the pieces along the scoreline for a card, I cut the 2 halves of the card in half along the scoreline and created 6 pages (I actually only used 5 for my album).  

 

 
Once I cut the black base pages, I created an internal offset in my Silhouette software and cut out 10 cute patterns from Lori’s new Bee Happy 6×6 paper pad (Echo Park).  I love how all of the patterns look layered together when the album is fanned out 🙂

 

Lori’s Nested Scallop circles (SVG, Silhouette) make great photo mats!  I just punched a 2.5″ round circle for the patterns inside.

 

Along with the cute scallop mats, I also used stickers and die cuts from Lori’s new Bee Happy collection.  I did trim off the small flowers in the lower left hand of the jar.  

 

 

I hope you like my take on Lori’s adorable Honey Jar card!  Please visit my blog over at Artsy Albums sometime to say hello!  Until next time, happy crafting!!

 

 

Garden Box Birthday Card

Anita here with a fun post on this April morning.  Do you have a gardener in your life who is getting excited that it is spring?  Well, I do, so I assembled Lori’s Garden Box Card (SVG, Silhouette) and used another of her box cards to have the pieces for the sentiment so that I could personalize it.  I used A2 Box Card Home (SVG, Silhouette).  I also used Lori’s brand new Echo Park Paper collection called Bee Happy.  It is so fun and I also used Endless Summer which was an Echo Park Paper collection of hers from last summer.  I will be folding this card flat for mailing and sending it off to a special lad.
That’s it for me today.  Thanks for looking and be sure to check out Lori’s shop for all your spring and summer paper crafting needs.
Hugs,
Anita

Strawberry Purse and Jam Jar Card

Good Moring friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for some of the new strawberry projects that were posted this week. I made the Strawberry Purse (SVG, Silhouette) and the A2 Strawberry Jam Jar Card (SVG, Silhouette). For this project, I also cut out a 3D Bow for the top of my purse. I used the bow from the Gable Box with Bow (SVG, Silhouette).

Once all of my pieces were cut, I folded all of the tabs in a mountain fold. Then inked all the edges with a corresponding color to help cover the white core paper and add dimension to each piece.

Before gluing the sides together, I glued the white panel piece inside the purse to cover the heart holes. This would also be cute left open. I then folded the lid back out of the way and added glue to all the tab on one side of the purse. (I find less glue is best when using a wet glue.)  I started with the back of the purse. I pinched the first tab on the top to the flat edge to secure then moved along the side pinching each tab to ensure it was secured.

Then repeated for each side. Now with the edges all glued, I added the green leaves and lid. (Sorry I missed a picture.) I cut two handles one green and one with a pattern paper that matched my bow. I put the green one on the outside and pattern paper on the inside. I did glue the two handles together and added the handle to the purse with brads. I assembled the bow and glued it to the top of the purse. I also added the flower to the front of the purse. I used an enamel dot for the center of my flower.
The jam jar card is really quick and so cute. I inked the edges of all the colored pieces and around the outside edge of the tag. The strawberries are in three pieces. I added tiny amounts of glue to the back of the red pieces then attached the white pieces to the red. Then glued the green leaves into place. The small strawberry is for the tag and the large one is for the scalloped label. The paper ribbon slides through the tag hole and then glued to the dotted cover of the jar. I then glued the scalloped label to the middle of the jam jar.
I embellished the purse with a few stickers from the Here Comes the Sun sticker book. All of the papers and stickers came from the Here Comes the Sun collection by Echo Park Paper.

This little gift set is so sweet! It will be perfect for a mom, teacher, grandma, sister, or friend! Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!
