A2 Insert Card Ideas

Hi there friends! Brandie here with a few ideas for some of the new insert cards in Lori’s shop. There is lots of options, endless possibilities, and they are so quick and easy to assemble.  I used the A2 Insert Card Mandala (SVG, Silhouette), A2 Insert Card Flower Spray (SVG, Silhouette), and the A2 Insert Card Cut and Fold Butterfly 4 (SVG, Silhouette).

Once you have the images uploaded in Cricut Design Space you will have to decide which version you want to use. There are three. I used the folded card with the insert.

I ungrouped the images and deleted the flat card version and front cuts version. I also changed the middle score line from a cut to a score line.

I folded the cards at the score line then tucked the insert into the card from the back (inside).

I used white cardstock for the base of all three cards. I used a papers from the I Love Crafting collection by Echo Park Paper for the flower spray card and the butterfly card. I painted the flower spray card with watercolors. For the butterfly card I added sequins to middle of each butterfly for some sparkle.  I used distress oxide inks and gold paint on white cardstock to create the color blend for the mandala card.

These cards really are so quick to assemble, look great as is or embellished, and will make the recipient so happy. That’s it for me today. Thanks for stopping by!

5X7 Pop Up Flower Card

Anita here with one of Lori’s stunning pop up flower cards.  I made this card using Lori’s 5X7 Pop Up Flower Card 4 which you can find the  here in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design Store.  For help with assembly, I watched Lori’s YouTube tutorial which you can find here.  I used some of Lori’s lovely Echo Park Paper collections including I Love Summer, My Favorite Christmas and All Boy.

Look how pretty this card is when open!  I can’t wait to send it off to an August birthday girl.  Be sure to check out all of Lori’s Pop Up Flower Cards  and watch the tutorial.  They are easy to put together once you watch the video.

Hugs,

Anita

Back To School Organizer

Hello crafty friends! It’s that time of year! Schools are starting back! For my family, we are doing  virtual online schooling for my kiddo and while we were getting her desk ready we realized that she would need something to organize her highlighters and colored pencils. I found the Desk Organizer 2 (Lori’s SVG shop, Silhouette) and I knew it would be perfect.

And how cute is it all dressed up in the new School Rules collection? I pulled out a could of ephemera pieces that go together perfectly. And here is a picture with all of my daughter’s markers and pencils.

It is on her desk and we are ready for school now! Thank you all for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my desk organizer!

Library Pocket Card Sailboat and matching Gift Box

Hello Everyone:

Anita here with a fun project which Lori designed recently called Library Pocket Card Sailboat.  You can find the file here in her SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design store.  I also made the matching Gift Box Sailboat which you can find here in Lori’s SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design store.  I used some of Lori’s Echo Park Paper collections for this project including All Boy, My Favorite Christmas and I Love Summer.  I used the print and cut feature for the library card itself.  I’m sure my nephew will love his box which I will also put some treats into for him.

This is a photo of the gift box by itself.

Here is a photo of the gift box with the card inside.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hugs,

Anita

Pop Up Butterfly Card

Happy Monday friends! I am sharing one of the new Pop Up Butterfly Cards (SVG, Silhouette). This card is so pretty and makes a big impact with the large butterfly on the inside. I love how adaptable they are as well. The colors and sentiment can be changed out as you need. I changed the sentiment from Thank You to Hello in Cricut Design Space and cut an extra decorative panel to add to the front of the card.

I used the I’d Rather Be Crafting collection by Echo Park Paper.  Give this card a try. It really is lovely.
Thanks for stopping by!
