Graduation Box Card Tutorial by Lezlye

Hi Everyone! It’s Lezlye and  I have a video tutorial for you today, working with the Hidden Box Gatefold Card . I kept pretty basic in my design, though it would be fun to experiment with adding texture and maybe some stamping on the panels.



You can see how deep the box is, but for the sake of folding and putting in an envelope I wouldn’t stuff it too full.

The best thing is, you can customize your colors according to the graduate’s school colors. I have included the assembly video below. In the video, I used papers from Echo Park Go See Explore by Lori Whitlock.

 

And here is my video:

Birthday Candle Card Tutorial with Courtney

Hello everyone! This is Courtney Lee from Court’s Crafts here with a tutorial on this super cute Birthday Candle Card that I made for my mom!

Here are the pieces all cut out. I went ahead and had the Cricut write the sentiment on my white layer to save time.

 

I glued all of the pieces together and popped the flames onto the candle tops.

 

I popped all of the candles so that they would have some depth.

 

I decided to use the background stamp that is part of the Perfect Princess collection by Lori Whitlock for Echo Park.

 

Isn’t it fun? It may be my new favorite background stamp.

 

I stitched around the edge for some extra character.

 

I finished it off by adding stickles to the hearts and Glossy Accents to the candles.

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial for today!

Tri Shutter Card Tutorial with Kathy

Hi Everyone! It’s Kathy today with a tutorial showing how to assemble the new Tri Shutter Cards.  Lori has a couple of new Tri Shutter Cards in the shop including the Tri Shutter Card Birthday  (here in the Silhouette Store) and this card, the Tri Shutter Card Baby ( here in the Silhouette Store).  Take a peek…

This card looks complicated, but it’s really easy to assemble.  I started by picking my papers, and cutting the pieces of the card.

Start by folding the base piece, this takes a little thought, but is not difficult.  Here are a couple of views of the piece once folded.

Next, add the decorative panels to the base piece.

Using the print and cut feature of your cutting machine, create the sentiment piece.  A blank sentiment piece is also included if you prefer to customize it.

Assemble the giraffe piece by layering the pieces onto the white base.  The white base then slips behind the lower section of the card base as shown and is glued in place.

To finish the card, add the BABY to the front piece.  I used some foam tape to pop this up a little.

Another great feature of this card is that it folds flat and fits into a standard A2 envelope!

That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!



4th of July Firecracker with Anita

Anita here today with a tutorial on how to make Lori’s 3D Firecracker.  You can find this file in her SVG shop here and here in the Silhouette Store.  I also used some parts of the 5X7 Box Card July 4th to add to the embellishments of my project.  You can find that file  here in Lori’s store and here in the Silhouette Store.  I love to mix and match Lori’s Echo Park collections on my projects and used I Love Winter and Go See Explore.

Here are the materials that I used for my project.

The firecracker wick is perforated so that you can fold the wick into a small square and then put it through the hole.

Next you are going to fold the tabs back and glue them to the inside of the cover of the tube.

Here is what is looks like from the front.

Next, fold down the tabs on the cover piece and glue them to one of the circles.  One of the extra red circles gets glued to the inside of the top to hide the tabs and glue.

Here is a photo of the Stickles that I put on the edges of the wick.

Repeat the process for the tube body.  This photo shows the red circle inside and I love the finished look.

Here is a close up photo of the embellishments.  I used the 4th of July circle from the box card.

That’s it for me today.  This is so cute and you can fill it with candy or leave it empty and on your table for a holiday centerpiece.

Hugs,

Anita
