Tuesday Awesome New SVG File!

NEW FILES – 25% OFF this week!

Check out the new SVG file project that I designed for you this week! The best part is that this new SVG file is ON SALE 25% OFF through Sunday at midnight in the SVG Shop. This project has been a labor of love and I’m super happy with how it turned out. This is the only new release we have for the week and it’s a special one. I designed a birthday card organizer that includes compartments for pens, 5×7 cards, A7 envelopes, and a print+cut birthday date planner that you can make. It also includes 3 drawers to store stamps, washi tape, paperclips, and tags in. I think you’re going to love it! I also have an assembly tutorial video for you on my YouTube Channel.

Note: I’m sorry that there are not more new releases this week, but my 91-year-old father fell and broke his hip this weekend so I’ve been helping him through surgery and the beginning of recovery. We have a few hard weeks ahead as he recuperates from this. But, he’s a trooper so we all have hopes of a good recovery for him. Everyone careful out there!

Box Card Cherry Carton Tutorial

Hi there friends! Have you seen all the new cherry themed projects in Loris’s store yet? So darling! Let’s make the new Box Card Cherry Carton (SVG, Silhouette-soon to be in the store!).

I used papers from the Down on the Farm Collection by Echo Park Paper Co. Once I had everything cut out, I inked the edge of the cherries, flower, and decorative panels. I then glued the all the panels and cherries in place. The first insert has four cherries, and the second insert has three. The two tabs on the ends of the box pieces are mountain folds and then glued together creating the box.

Now to add the inserts. The tabs are valley folds, and the glue is applied to the outside of the tab (the side that is going against the inside of the box card). I lined up the front of the tabs with the front of the inside of the box and the top of the tabs with the top of the box card.

Before the glue is dry, I fold the box card flat making sure it will fold flat all the way.

I use the same process for the second insert except I line the tabs up to the back of the first insert and the top of the box card.

Lastly, I glued the sentiment and the flower to the front of the card.

Now the card is ready to send! Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you have a cherry good day!

Explosion Dog House Box

HI everyone!  I’m sharing a fun, easy tutorial with you today with Lori’s Explosion Dog House Box.  There are a lot of pieces, but it really goes together quickly and easily.  I was done in no time at all.  I used Lori’s Echo Park Pets Collection for my project today.  Almost every pet is represented with this collection, soooooo cute and the colors are just too fun.  You can also find this file here in the Silhouette Design Store.

I always start by cutting everything out, it’s easy as Lori has everything colored and easy to ungroup.  After I get everything cut out, I organize my pieces and just start assembling them.  I used scor-tape, scotch atg adhesive, glue dots and a glue pen to adhere the box.

Below are all my pieces, cut and sorted.

 

 

 

First, start with the lid, adhere the panels and add scor- tape to the little tabs.  Fold on the score lines and assemble.

 

 

Next, score and add scor tape to the tabs for the inside dog house.

 

Adhere.
Now the same for your roof pieces.  I changed up some colors, as you will see.  These score lines and tabs are a bit smaller, so on this I used some mini glue dots and a glue pen.
Too cute!
Now onto the pockets for the inside of the box.  Just fold on the score lines and add scor-tape.  Adhere the pockets and add the inserts.
Next, I glued the four pockets to the base of the explosion box, for this I just used my Scotch atg gun.
Then assemble your little dog house and adhere the bottom the dog house to the box base with scor-tape.
Now you are ready for the fun part….just embellish and have fun.  This collection is so happy, I found all the perfect embellishments and little details to make my heart smile.
Here’s the box all folded up!
And the box exploding!
Perfect to hide some treats of trinkets in for a new puppy owner.
And it’s just too stinkin’ cute!  I adore this project!
Pretty sure I need a new bully dog just to go with my project…lol!
Thanks for joining us today.

4 Candy Drawer #1 Dad Sports Tutorial

Hello friends!  Traci back to share a simple gift box project with you!  What dad wouldn’t want to receive this sweet treat box on Father’s Day?  You can find this one here (SVG, Silhouette).

I love how simple this design is and such a fun idea for tiny gifts or candy!

 

Here are a few tips for assembling this project.  First, use a medium weight card stock for the boxes and the “drawer”… probably less than 100#.  If the card stock is too thick, it might make the drawer a little tight.  I used Bazzill 80# (Jade) and it worked perfectly.  

 

Tip #2:  If you fold all of the score lines on the little boxes correctly, as in the photo above, you will hide all of the glue tabs and end up with a nice solid base. 

 

I love how the little boxes are removable!  This way you can use 1,2,3, or all four.  This design is great for a sports loving dad, but Lori has other styles too (SVG), so be sure to check out her other new designs.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by the blog today!  Have fun making a handmade gift for a dad in your life! Father’s Day is on Sunday, June 18!
