Cookie Box

Welcome to the first Monday in July! Ashley here, and I am so excited to share this Cookie Box (SVG, Silhouette) with you today.  Do you ever want to give a little something to make someone’s day brighter?  One of my favorite treats are the special cookies that several companies local to me sell.  And now there is a Cookie Box that can hold them.

This box is a great size.  It is a 4.5 inches square and 2 inches high. It is best to adhere the decorative panels to the box top before you glue the glue tabs. You can fill the box with a cookie or another treat and deliver some cheer to someone. Enjoy the week.

Have a great day!

Fireworks Display

Hi there friends! Brandie here with a tutorial for a cute 4th of July Fireworks Display (SVGSilhouette) These fireworks are so fun and simple to make. They can be added to a vase, mason jar, or even a fake potted plant like I did here.

First fold all of the score lines as mountain folds (away from you). Then glue the decorative panels in place. (I glued the long side tab first and then glued the decorative panels which made this step a little harder for myself.) Glue the long side tab creating a octogon shaped tube. Working from left to right glue the top tabs together until you have two tabs left. The last two tabs can be glued together at the same time. Pinch the top points together then flip the firework over and use a pencil or paint brush handle to secure the tabs on the inside of the firework.

Now its time to embellish the firework, curl the tails, then using hot glue add a paper straw or bamboo skewer to the inside of the firework.

I resized the firework and made two smaller ones. The paper collection I used is America by Echo Park Paper Company.

That’s it for me today. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Father’s Day Shirt Card

Hi Everyone:

Anita here with a really easy and fun last minute card that you can make for the fathers in your life.  This card is called Happy Father’s Day Shirt Card and you can find the file here in Lori’s SVG shop and here in the Silhouette Design store.  I used one of Lori’s newest Echo Park collections called All Boy.

The card comes with an envelope cut file as well which is a great way to send off this cute card.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Sailboat Box Card

Hello crafty friends! Aimee with you today and bringing you this adorable little sailboat card. This is the new Box Card Sailboat (Lori’s SVG ShopSilhouette Design).

It looks great in the red, white, and blue colors but I thought I’d go a different route and use the new America collection by Lori. I love the red, white, blue, light blue, and wood!! The smaller patterns from the 6×6 pad were the perfect size for my card.
This sweet little sailboat card can easily be folded to fit inside of an envelope for mailing but I think it will be perfect to set out with all of my 4th of July decor in my house.
Thanks for stopping by today!

Wedding Anniversary Card

Hi Everyone:

It’s my 35th wedding anniversary today and I made this card for my wonderful husband to celebrate our love.  We had a wonderful European cruise planned to celebrate but given these uncertain times we had to cancel.  We are looking forward to trying again in 2021.  In the meantime, we plan a quiet celebration.  I have no idea where the time has gone though.  I used Lori’s Pop Out Card Heart which you can find here in her SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design store.  I also used Whole Heart Whole Life Saying which you can find here in Lori’s SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design store for my sentiment.  I used Lori’s new Echo Park Paper line called All Boy to create the card.  This card folds flat and fits nicely into an A2 envelope.

I took the Whole Heart Whole Life sentiment and shrunk it to fit in the center of my heart.  I then grouped that together and used it as a print and cut sentiment with the registration marks turned on in my Silhouette Cameo.  When I went to cut the heart out after it was printed, I ungrouped it and moved the sentiment off the mat.  I cut out the heart and it came out perfect.

My husband really appreciates home made cards and in this time where it is harder to get out to buy what we want, don’t forget that Lori has cards and gift giving items for every occasion in her store.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hugs,

Anita
