Christmas House Card Inspiration

Lori Whitlock December Inspiration
Today on the Lori Whitlock blog I am sharing this fun Christmas House Creation. I have always loved this file!
 
 I added a little Santa and Sleigh ‘up on the rooftop’ for a bit of fun. I also cut extra elements from the front pieces to add a bit of interest on the inside of the card.  There was one reindeer that did not fit on the rooftop so he got to come inside and eat all the carrots waiting for the other reindeer! Hope he shared LOL!

Snowman Mini Album

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I’m sharing a super fun mini album that I made with one of Lori’s fabulous cutting files called Shaped Shadow Box Card Snowman (SVG, Silhouette). What a great little scrapbook for winter photos and a cute handmade Christmas gift idea!

I love creating different projects, scrapbooks, and cards with Lori’s files. With the holiday just around the corner, they make amazing presents and home decor. I always set my projects out on my clear acrylic display stand. Lori is an amazing designer and I think these are little works of art! 

 


Her Shaped Shadow Box Card Snowman file is absolutely adorable with its layered 3D winter scene. I will definitely be making this card soon but for today’s project, I used just his head.

To make the album, I cut the cover out of white acrylic but you could use card stock instead. Then, I used black card stock and patterned papers from Doodlebug Design for the details. I added a few pop dots behind the holly berries and leaves for a little dimension and I think he’s the cutest!

For the inside, I cut 4 snowman shaped pages out of white card stock, giving me 8 layouts to decorate.

I covered the pages in pattern papers from Doodlebug’s Snow Much Fun Collection, then added lots of cute embellishments, flippies, and photo mats. On the page above, I used a 4″ and 3.5″ circle punch by Marvy Uchida to create my mat.

The round snowman’s face allowed me to play with the shape and size of the
photo mats so I varied them for interest. Then, I filled in the extra space around them with die cut pieces.

Speaking of die cuts … how cute are the little penguins above? I placed one underneath the mat so it looks like he’s peeking out from behind it! I made the mat with a 3″ scalloped circle punch and a 2.5″ circle punch.

A2 Santa Claus Card

Hello crafty friends, Noelene here today! I want to share with you a cute Christmas card from the Lori Whitlock file called A2 Santa Claus Card ( SVG, Silhouette). This is such a cute fun card to make.
Once I cut all my pieces I embellished the red layer (including his hat and suit) with a Christmas holly swirl embossing folder. This was a simple step, but effective I think. Then I glued my pieces in place. I cut a strip of gold & red Christmas ribbon & glued it down onto the base of my card. Lastly, I glued everything into place, and used foam squares to pop Santa up for some fun dimension.

Thanks for stopping by!

3D Pocket Explosion Box Tutorial

Happy almost Halloween, everyone!  Yes, my very favorite time of the year to create. Today I’m sharing a fun tutorial for one of Lori’s adorable designs — the Pocket Explosion Box (SVG, Silhouette)  I love how quickly and easily this project comes together.

EEEEK!  It’s so cute!
First, start with cutting all your pieces.  Here is the outside of the box and the lid.
This is the inside layer of the box, the little purple pocket like folders.
And the lid.

After cutting all your pieces, start assembling.  I started with the little file folders, just fold on the score lines and just use your regular adhesive to put them together.
There are 4 total of these little cuties.
This is the inside of the first layer, the black star print is on the other side. Adhere a folder to each side.
So it looks like this!
Next, create the inside layer of your box.  You just fold over and adhere, it makes the cutest little library type pockets.  Just add adhesive to the bottom square on the opposite side and adhere to your first layer.
Now you just get to have fun and go to town with all the little embellishments.
Just open and this little box just explodes with fun!  Adorable!
Thank you for joining us today!
