Box Card Spring Flower Pot Tutorial

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a quick assembly tutorial for one of the new Flowerpot box cards. I used the Box Card Spring Flower Pot file (SVG, Silhouette). This file is so bright and cheerful. It has several print and cut sentiments so that it can be used for any occasion. I used the Happy Birthday sentiment, and the papers are from the Our Happy Place paper collection by Echo Park Paper Co.

The box part of this card comes in two separate sections with two decretive panels on each. These two sections are glued together side by side. It also has two rim pieces that will be glued on the front and back of the card. The rim pieces hang over the edge of the pot a little so be sure not to add glue all the way to the edge of the paper. I glued the pot all together forming the square before adding the inserts this time as well.

Before the inserts are added to the box card the flowers need to be assembled. All of the flowers have multiple layers for added dimension. The file does come with centers for the flowers, but I used enamel dots for mine. After all of the flowers are assembled I added them to the inserts. Inserts one and two are the only ones with flowers. The third insert is plain green.

The tabs on all of the inserts are folded into valley folds and glue added to the backs of the tabs. I held the tabs folded down and slid the insert into the box, made sure the top of the tabs was flush with the top of box and front of the tabs was flush with the front of the box. After I had the tabs lined up, I folded the box card flat in both directions to make sure everything would lay flat. I then added the remaining inserts the same way but using the insert in front as the guide.

With the inserts all in place I then glued the flower and sentiment to the front of the box.

I love how versatile this box card can be. I hope you give it a try. Thanks for stopping by today!

Fun with Patterned Paper

Hi everyone!  I have some cards to share with you today.  They all were created using Lori’s Echo Park Our Happy Place.  I used the 6×6 paper pad to create these, enamel dots and stickers from the sticker book. I just want to show what a different look you get to these cards when you use patterned papers instead of plain colored card stock.  It makes even the cutesiest of cards have a whole different look.  Some what of softer and bit more sophisticated  look.  I love how these all turned out, this collection has the softest colors and darling little patterns. I am all set for my Easter cards with these being finished now.  

I will have a list at the bottom, in order, of the files I used for these.  

 

The two bunny shaped cards can be found in this bundle:

Thanks for joining us today!

“Just Chicken In” box card tutorial

Happy Thursday my crafty friends. When I saw this cute little chicken card, the A2 Shaped Box Card Chicken, (SVG) it reminded me of soup, and since everyone around me is currently sick with some cootie or another I thought this would be the perfect little project.

First cut all your pieces. As always I have my Cricut write my words on the tag.

Fold your pieces on the score lines

Add your adhesive to these pieces

Glue your beak, wattles and comb to the chicken insert. Don’t put the eye on yet.

I added the insert piece into the box. I put it as close to the front as possiable as I wanted to use it as a box with goodies too.

Once my box was assembled, I added adhesive around  the square part on both the front and back, 1 side as a time.

I put the bowl shaped pieces on the fron and the back.

This is where you will attach the eye. Top left corner of the bowl piece.

I used pop dots to pop the wing (heart) piece on both back and front. Embelished with a little bakers twint on the tag.

I added a soup packet and kleenex as well as some tylonal and cough drops. I did place a piece of packing tape along the bottom to keep my goodies from falling out.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!
