Hello friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the Box Card Teacup Fall Raccoon (SVG, Silhouette). This box card works well for any fall occasion, but I will be using it as a birthday card.
For the teacup I cut an extra cup piece without the handle to give my cup a two-toned look. I folded the score lines of the box portion of the card as mountain folds and the racoon tabs as valley folds. The raccoon insert tabs are glued to the shortest sides of the box. I lined up the tabs of the insert with the score lines and the top of the inside of the box. With one side secure I added glue to the back of the second tab of the insert then folded the box over making sure everything was lined up. Once the tab was secure, I flipped the card over and added glue to the box tab and folded the back of the box over making sure everything was lined up before the glue set.
I then added glue to the front of the box and lined the bottom edge of the cup with a handle to the bottom edge of the box making sure the corners line up. With my extra decorative cup piece, I glued the raccoon hands and flowers into place and glued it to the front of my card. Then I glued the back piece of the cup to the back of the box. Lastly, I glued the racoon tail to the back of the racoon insert making sure the card would fold flat. I also used a white acrylic pen to give my raccoon some highlights.
Happy Monday everyone!
I was so excited when this Chickens paper from Echo Park Paper and Lori Whitlock arrived on my door step. I knew this egg-stra cute photo of my granddaughter taking her bucket of chicken feed to the chickens needed to go on here. Last summer I took the grandkids to their aunt’s farm to see all the animals. Mary was all about feeding the chickens and horses.
I used the Chickens paper and for my title I used the Life is Better on the Farm 2 image for my title and added a shadow backing.
Then I added some rosettes. I used just the rosette part from the A2 Easel Card Valentine Rosette. I used stickers and frames and tags for the centers of the rosettes and around the rosettes.
I finished off the layout by inking some feet from the Free Range Feet stencil and adding some stickers.
Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I have a fun 12×12 scrapbook page and simple tutorial to share with you. I wanted to create a layout for a picture of my sweet grandson’s 4th birthday and I found one of Lori’s cutting files that would be perfect for it.

I chose her Number Lace Cutting File (SVG, Silhouette). Not only did it have a number 4 on it, but I also loved the positive and negative spaces it created in the background.

Here’s how I made this layout …
1. I added the cutting file to my mat and resized it to 10.75 x 10.75”. I cut it out of white card stock and set that aside.

2. Next, I used the knife tool to chop down the background into smaller pieces so that I could focus in on the number 4. I didn’t want to cut the entire background piece again just to get the 4.

3. Once I isolated the 4 in the file, I deleted everything else and cut this section out of orange paper.

4. Then I used my scissors to trim the rest of the paper from around the number.

5. Now that I had the white background and the orange number cut out, it was time to create my layout!
I used the Echo Park, Vroom Collection that was also designed by Lori. I decorated my Race Car Mini Album with it and the colors and patterns were just what I was looking for.

I started with the orange 12×12 pattern called Ready Set Go Stripes as my base and layered the blue Winner Winner print and Ready Racers paper on top. Then, I added the white number lace sheet and I backed each corner with a yellow triangle cut from a solid in the Vroom Collection.

Next, I adhered the orange 4 on top of the white 4 that’s part of the background. I cut some photo mats out of a few other papers from the Vroom Collection and I added my photo.

Then, I finished the layout with lots of fun embellishments. The “Let’s Go” is from the Vroom 12×12 sticker sheet. And the other birthday themed stickers and die cuts are from the Bella Blvd, Birthday Bash Collection.
Hi everyone! I have a couple of quick cards to share with you today…they are a couple of older files from Lori, but I knew they would be perfect for her new collection from Echo Park.
I used the 6×6 pad, sticker book, enamel dots, washi tape, and stick-on brads for these two cards. I have always been a huge fan of Lori’s shaped cards, and I adore how these two turned out. I know they will brighten someone’s day this week.
Thanks for stopping by!
