Christmas at Pooh’s Place

 Hi friends!  If Pooh had a little house to decorate for Christmas, I think he’d hang his lights just a bit unevenly and save a spot by the door for Piglet.  That’s the little scene I had in mind when I paired the SVG file of Lori’s, here in Lori’s Shop (Silhouette Store) and Echo Park’s Winnie the Pooh Christmas collection.

I started with the red snowflake paper for the house and gave it a plaid roof.  My favorite part was trimming those scalloped eaves.  A few red and green enamel dots along the sweetest string of Christmas lights.  I added a wreath to the front door and tied it with Baker’s Twine.
 
The finishing touch is the little Pooh and Piglet sentiment beside the trees. It reads, “The best thing about Christmas is spending it with you”.  I love that the big sign on the roof wishes everyone a Merry Christmas!
Happy Creating!
 

 

 

A Little Something to Be Thankful For

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and I have a fun little project to share today! This turkey box card is the perfect way to send a little fall cheer and remind someone just how thankful you are for them.

I had so much fun putting this one together! The warm browns, golden yellows, and pops of burgundy and purple make such a pretty fall color combination. I especially love the layered turkey feathers and the little arrangement of flowers and berries tucked behind him. The finishing touch is the sparkly orange gem that gives this turkey a little extra personality! You can find the Fall Turkey Box card in Lori’s shop or in the Silhouette store (SVG, Silhouette).

Box cards are always fun to create because they have so much dimension and make such a cute display piece. Whether you’re sending one to a friend, adding it to your Thanksgiving table, or giving it to someone special, it’s a sweet way to share a little gratitude.

I hope this project inspires you to get creative and make something special for the people you’re thankful for!

Happy crafting!

Bobble Head Santa and Bobble Head Elf Card

Hello crafty friends, Noelene here today!  It’s official, Christmas is less than 2 months away, so today I want to share with you the Bobble Head Santa Card (SVG, Silhouette) & Bobble Head Elf Card (SVG, Silhouette) fom Lori Whitlock !
Once I cut out all my pieces, I embossed the scalloped shaped background with a pretty Flurry of Snowflakes embossing folder. I then lightly run a white ink pad across the top to make the embossed part stand out.

Then, after I put all my Santa & Elf pieces together, I glued them down onto my card bases & used some foam tape underneath the heads to create some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by!

Witch Boot Treat Box

One of my favorite Halloween traditions is making a small treat for my teammates. This year, I created the Witch Boot Treat Box (SVG) and filled it with a popular Halloween candy. Its simple design makes it ideal for adding some playful witchy decorations.

This file includes four box sides, one box bottom, two boot covers, and four boot lace covers. For the box sides and bottom, all tabs are folded in a mountain fold. The box sides are attached side by side, alternating wide and narrow sides, until all four sides are connected. Attach the bottom of the box to its narrow end, then secure the wide side tab to the corresponding wide box side. Once the first tab is secured, move on to the next, gluing the remaining tabs to the bottom of the box.

With the bottom of the box in place, add glue to the final side and close it up. To secure the long tab, use the handle of a paper tool to press from inside the box against the tab.
The straight edge of the boot lace cover lines up with the straight edge at the front of the boot. The boot cover is then attached to one wide side of the box, with the box opening positioned at the top. Follow the same steps for the other side of the boot.
The treat box is now prepped for some witchy charm. I punched holes and threaded ribbon through the front of the boot, added quirky black stars, and topped it off with a trick-or-treat tag (SVG, Silhouette).
This adorable treat box is all set to be filled and shared with my team. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments. Thanks for joining us today!
