Hi everyone! Corri here today sharing a quick assembly tutorial for the new stacking card base cards. I made the snowflake version. You can really change the look of these cards by changing the colors of the layers. Try ungrouping the layers in Silhouette Studio and then playing around with the colors. You can get a preview of your finished card before you cut things out.
Here’s what the layers look like when they are all cut.
Now just glue the layer with the medium size cut outs on the layer with the smallest snowflakes cut outs. Be careful to apply your glue neatly on the edges so it doesn’t bleed into the cut outs.
The final layer goes on top to give the card this fun three dimensional look.
These cards are pretty on their own…just add a sentiment. Or add some fun chipboard elements to create a cute winter scene.

So far I have made two of these but I just love them!!! Click on the links below to pick up some from yourself and share your creations with us! We love to see them!
I like to start by adding the panel pieces to the front and back of the box card like so… except for that tall yellow piece. Hold onto that. for a second. It turns out that covers up the “flap” of the box when you put it together. I had to tear mine off and put it back on.
Oh no! I forgot that I wanted to add this gorgeous background stamp to my yellow panels! Even designers make mistakes (ahem.. all the time…). Just add it on anyway! 🙂
Now assemble the “box” and add the back yellow layer to cover up the flap.
I embossed and inked the edges of the turkey and pop and glue all the pieces to their layers.
Add the layers in and a sentiment and you are done! 🙂 I got this sentiment from the
No matter what happens today remember that the day is all about relationships and being thankful. If you burn the turkey, don’t sweat it. You have food to eat. If people fight, don’t worry about it. You have people who love each other enough to want to get together on a day – family, friends, loved ones. You aren’t alone. And if you are still feeling stressed at the end of it… well… leave the dishes to the morning and go get in your craft room! 🙂
