Gnome Box Tutorial

There is a new Gnome Box Collection in the Lori Whitlock SVG store.  They are all so cute.  Here’s some quick tips about putting these together.

 

The gnome I pieced together can be found here in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop, and at the Silhouette Design store here.

I used paper from Lori’s Little Lumberjack collection by Echo Park.

If you have a Cricut and a scoring tool or wheel, you will want to upload the Solid SVG file.  If you are using Silhouette or don’t have a scoring tool, you will want to use the Dashed Lines SVG file.

Here are all the gnome pieces.  There are gnomes on both sides of the box.

This is the box piece.  Notice that the gnomes will cover the sides of this box.  And you will see the pattern of this paper on the short side when completed.

Assemble all the gnome pieces on the flat box.

Then glue the box flaps together to complete the box.

 

This cute box could be used in a number of ways–class party craft, table name cards, or treat boxes.  Have fun creating!

6X6 Wiper Card Christmas Santa

 

 

Hi Everyone:

Anita here with a really fun new interactive Christmas card.  It is called 6X6 Wiper Card Christmas Santa and the file can be found here in Lori’s SVG store and here in the Silhouette store.  I followed along with Lori’s You Tube tutorial for assembling this card and you can find the video for this card here.  I used some wonderful Echo Park collections Lori has designed including Summer Adventure, Wish on a Star, Back to School, My Favorite Winter and Celebrate Christmas.  Lori has several different wiper card files for different occasions.

 

Best wishes for a magical holiday season.

Hugs,

Anita

Mason Jar Card

Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope all of you have a wonderful day with family and get lots of deals.   Today I’m sharing Lori’s Mason Jar card (Silhouette, SVG).  I love the way this card looks when it’s all put together.  The greenery in the jars looks so pretty.  I used some metallic cardstock I had to give the lid some sparkle and added a chipboard sticker from Echo Park’s My Favorite Christmas collection.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thanksgiving Host Gift Set

Hi there friends! Are you lucky enough to get to attended a Thanksgiving dinner and not do any of the cooking?! Well then I have a Host/Thank you gift set idea for you! I used the Shaped Card Pumpkin (SVG, Silhouette) and the Gift bag with Handle Scalloped (SVG, Silhouette).

This little bag is perfect to tuck a few little treats in and maybe a gift card for a coffee. The papers and embellishments all come from the My Favorite Fall collection by Echo Park.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you get to spend Thanksgiving with the ones you love most!

Winter Mini File Folder Album

fI’m sharing a little mini file folder album with you today created with Echo Park’s My Favorite Winter collection.  I taught a class just before Halloween that was created by Jana Eubank , it used full sized file folders that you scored and folded to created a mini album.  I loved it so much that I decided to create another with a bit simpler version using Lori’s files.  I used the 4×6 File Folder Set (SVG, Silhouette) this tag from Pebbles in My Pocket.

I cut 4 plus one file folders in different colors.  You will use 4 complete file folders and the top of one more. Cut your last file folder so that you just have the tabbed top.  This is your cover.  I used the file folder with the top tab for this one. Then you can see that I used scor-tape to layer my folders together, creating side and top pockets between the folders.  I used 1/4 inch scor-tape to do this.  Layer all the folders on top of each other creating a mini book with top and side pockets.

Next I cut a couple 4×4 pieces from the My Favorite Winter Elements sheet and then cut 5 scallop tags.  Two of these tags will become pages and the other 3 will be tags for the pullouts along with the 2 four x four elements.

Score two of these tags at an inch to create those fold out pages.  You’ll see where they go in the pictures below.  Once you have the book all put together the fun part begins.  Embellish, embellish, embellish with all the fabulous goodies from the adorable collection.  I used the chipboard, stickers, enamel dots, tags and frames and a bunch of ribbons.  It’s a fun, fast little project with all kinds of room for photos of winter fun!
