Get Well Card Hippo Tutorial

Hello there!!!  Welcome to our Thursday tutorial! I have always loved the Get Well Card Hippo SVG file and I finally got a chance to made two! This little hippo is bound to make anyone feel better.

 Get Well Hippo Box Card (SVG, SS #203188)
Lori Whitlock Life is Beautiful 6×6 paperpad HERE.
I added a few extra flowers to this card- the flowers are from past projects.
These are not included in this file. I also added a bit of extra matting (pieces not included in the file but I will show you how to make them) I like that extra pop the mats give! That has to come from being a card maker for years LOL!
I also cut an offset for the back of each card so I could easily write a get well message.
 Cut pieces for inserts 1 and 2(notice they are numbered)
Cut pieces for the frame/box of the bed.
I made a mat for each of the decorative pieces on the bed. To do that I put the pieces I wanted to make an offset for onto my design mat in Silhouette.
1. Highlight all the pieces.
2. Choose the star icon (this is the offset/inset button)
3. Choose Offset
4. Distance-enter  .050
5. Choose either sharp corner or rounded corner
6. Apply
After you  have done that pull the offset cut piece to the side to cut later with your accent color.
See below for location of the button. It’s highlighted in blue on the side and also bolded on the top menu-third from the end.

Everything glued and ready to go!
Glue the tabs of the bed frame to form the box. Add the 2 inserts inside, aligning the tabs with the top of the sides of the box. It’s important to fold the card flat each way to  make sure they are inserted and glued correctly. If not, the card may not fold all the way flat. Tah dah…you are done!
I always cut a few extra sentiments or small pieces because I tend to lose them…I don’t know how that happens! I have this container full of all my extra flowers, tags, etc that I can use later!
You can also see Lori’s You Tube box card tutorial HERE.
I hope you will give this SVG file a try with your cutting machine — it was fun and easy to make and it’s nice to have a few get well cards on hand.

Happy Birthday Balloon Cluster Cards

Hello Crafty friends, today I have some cute quick cards to share with you! 

I have chosen the 5×7 Happy Birthday Balloon Cluster Card file (SVG, Silhouette) from Lori Whitlock. These were very easy, quick & fun to do! I like to have some cards on hand in my stash & these were perfect.

Not only did I make cards that were fun & bright, but I was able to add silver to blue & white or black & white to get a masculine theme! I definitley never have enough of those in my stash!
I started out by cutting out all my paper elements.
Now just a quick tip……my Silhouette Cameo doesn’t seem to like cutting fine small detail in black cardstock. I have found an easy solution to this by using black adhesive vinyl instead. Once I weed my vinyl I was able to use transfer tape to place the sentiment & the string in place quite easily. I find this process less messy too! No need to use glue to stick down those fine lines.

 

Next it’s just a matter of adhering all the balloons into place & using some foam tape for the front ones to get dimension, like I have, if you wish. Then I embellished with some enamel shapes to look like confetti around the balloons.
This card file makes a great activity to do with the kids! As I said, they were so easy to do!
I hope you enjoyed my cards today & give them a try for yourself!
Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs
Noelene 🙂
