Christmas K-Cup Carrier

Hello all!
Just a quick little project to share with you in case you need a little last minute gift for the coffee lover in your life.  Lori has quite a few choices for K-cup carriers and boxes in her shop, but this one is my fave.  It holds four K-cups and you can decorate it to any theme you desire.  It’s a fun way for the coffee lover to try different flavors as well.
I used a couple different Echo Park collections of Lori’s for this one.  It’s simple to assemble and is just the perfect little gift!
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

5×5 Christmas Mini Album with Traci

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I have a cute little Christmas scrapbook to share with you titled Eat, Drink, and Be Merry. I made it using one of Lori’s fabulous cutting files called 5×5 Mini Album with Gusset Pages (SVG, Silhouette) and it’s the perfect small size for gift giving this holiday season!

Eat, Drink, and Be Merry Christmas Mini Album

Lori’s files make it so easy to create the sweetest handmade presents and this one was super simple.

Eat, Drink, and Be Merry Christmas Mini Album

 

The album is made with a cover piece and 3 gusseted pages (which gives you 6 scrapbook pages inside). To start, I cut the base out of white cardstock then decorated the pieces with paper and embellishments from the Bella Blvd, Merry Mingle Collection.

Here is a photo of the gusseted edges. The white pages go in the cover piece and the holes line up perfectly for binding.

I ran 3 strands of twine through the
cover and each page, then tied them in a cute knot on the inside.

Next … the decorating! I layered the pages
with 12×12 pattern papers, photo mats, and colorful embellishments.
And that was it! See? Sooo simple and such a fun project! 

Here are the other pages for some holiday inspiration …

While I decorated this mini album in a festive Christmas theme, the cutting file is literally a blank canvas and could be designed with ANY paper collection. Imagine winter, Valentine’s Day, spring, Easter, Mother’s Day, or … anything! I love Lori’s projects … the possibilities are endless. 💕

5×7 Iris Shutter Card Latte

Happy Monday! Can you believe it’s December already? Where has this year gone? Time to get started on Christmas cards. I’ve been looking at this adorable iris shutter latte card (SVG, Silhouette) and know I could make it festive.

When you slide the lever down the side of the card, the shutter opens/closes to reveal the heart.

I used Echo Park Paper Have A Holly Jolly Christmas by Lori Whitlock. I added some holly stickers from the paper line to the sentiment and the heart.

I removed the flowers from the card and added the holly instead. (SVG, Silhouette). And if you haven’t figured out by now, I’m a fan of puns/play on words so I had to change up the sentiment as well.

You can find a tutorial on how to make this and other iris shutter cards HERE.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Snowman Flexi Card Tutorial

Hi everyone!  I have a fun and quick little card tutorial for you today.  I haven’t made one of Lori’s Flexi cards in quite awhile and was scrolling through my library and came across this super cute one.  They are so easy to make, they fold flat for mailing and your recipient will love it.  You can find this file here In Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.  Or you can down get a whole bundle of fun Christmas, Christmas Flexi Bundle.  I did alter it a little bit.
Start by cutting all out your pieces out.
Ink your edges!
Adhere your pattern papers to the card base.
On this little piece adhere your patterned paper, and some scor tape.
This little tab slides under the white snow and tree piece.
Okay, here is where I altered it a bit….I just trimmed the snowman off and added a snowman doodlepop from Doodlebug.  He was too cute to resist.
The big tab slides in here

 

And the other tab slides in the other slot.  There you have it, an easy peasy little flexi  card.  It really just took minutes to create.

Have a great day!
