2026 Sticky Note Calendar

Sticky Note Calendar-2026

Pattern Fill Set Summer Splash

3 Valentine Gnomes (Silhouette)

 

Pictured above are the pieces I used for this project. 
3 pieces for the calendar holder cut file, some Lori Whitlock pattern fill paper  and some paper inserts (3×3.25 inches) I made for the holder since I didn’t have a sticky notepad. I cut the pieces and stamped some inspirational sentiments on each sheet. You will get 12 full sheets and 4 partial pieces that still work! I cut 2 sets of these.
 
Opening the calendar  in Silhouette it imports to cut all the print, so you have to highlight and choose cut edge to cut them out properly. You also have to enlarge the print and cut length just a wee bit to allow for cutting all the calendar pages. I used regular printer paper for this part. 
This is what it looks like when the Silhouette software is set to cut edge. Stack and staple them together after cutting them out.

I added the stamped inserts and the little peeking gnome (you could use anything really) on the back for a bit of fun and I was all done! 
 
I hope you enjoyed this quick little project. It is a great addition to your desk and will keep you on track for 2026!
 

3D Hot Cocoa Mug with Cookies for Santa

Merry Christmas Crafty Friends!🎅 Noelene here today!
Did you make sure you left some cocoa & cookies for Santa?
Today I am popping in for a quick tutorial to show you how I made this cute 3D Hot Cocoa Mug (SVG, Silhouette) & Cookies for Santa (SVG, Silhouette), from Lori Whitlock.
First cut out all your pieces & glue your panels on.
Next glue the 2 handle pieces together then glue the handle tab to the inside of a mug panel.
Now valley fold all your mug tabs & start glueing each piece one by one. It helps to slightly bow the panels inward before you start glueing.
Now fold the tabs down for your cocoa lid. Next take the white froth piece & fold inwards each panel. Then gently one by one overlap each panel till they sit in place, but do not push down all the way. Now glue the froth onto the cocoa lid. The lid sits on top so you can put some treats inside the mug.
To make your saucer & plate, valley fold your scored plates & glue the end tab on the base.
Then, take the hexagon piece & glue it down onto the bottom center.
Then on one of the plates, stick down your biscuits. I used foam tabs to create a bit of dimension. Now, mountain fold your cookies sign & you’re done!
They make the cutest little gift with treats inside! Or even a prop for your Elf on the Shelf!
Don’t forget to check out all the other 3D Mugs, which include 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Penguin (SVG, Silhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Santa (SVG, Silhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Snowman (SVG, Silhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Gnome (SVG, Silhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Polar Bear (SVG, Silhouette).

Candy Holder Christmas Ornament

Hi there friends! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the new Candy Holder Christmas Ornament Santa (SVG, Silhouette). This ornament comes in several different styles as well. You can find the bundle here. I used the Lindt Lindor chocolate and found that a heavier (85lb) cardstock worked better than a lighter (60lb) one. But these are definitely a great scrap buster project. These cuties would look great tied to a gift as well as hanging on a tree.

After I cut everything out I decided to discard the round cheeks for some pink chalk that I applied with a paint brush. I then assembled the faces of my characters. The front of the Santa also has a belt, a white ruffle for the hat, an additional cover for the top of the hanger and a white ruffle for the bottom of his jacket.

With the front of the characters done I folded the score line into mountain folds. Before tucking the candy into the belly of the ornament, I used some glue dots to secure the wrapper onto the back of the candy. I then added glue to just the top of the inside of the ornament. Creating a little A-Frame shape with the ornament. The chocolate then slides right into the belly of the ornament.

I added a sticker and tied some bakers twine to the top.

These are a cute fun project. Thanks for stopping by today!

Shaped Shadow Box Card Polar Bear Tutorial

 Happy Holidays everyone!  I have a quick and easy little shadow box to share with you.  It’s Lori’s Shaped Shadow Box Polar Bear.  This is the sweetest little bear.  I created this with just some card stock and Lori’s new Echo Park Winter Fun collection.  This little shadow box goes together like Lori’s box card envelope cards.  So super duper easy.

You can find the file here in the Silhouette Design Store, also.

First, start with cutting out all your pieces.

Then I put together his little face.
Then add your tree cutout to the back layer.
Flip over the two layer pieces and add double sided adhesive on each piece.
Also, add the blue snow piece to the very back of the box.  Adhere the two pieces together to form your box and then next add the tree layer, then to the village scene.
Then you get the sweetest little shadow box….I just finished it with all the darling elements from the Winter Fun collection.  He’s just adorable!  I can’t wait to make more.
Thanks for joining us today!
