Check out the new shapes today. First we have some cute 3D bows, which would be adorable on a gift box (check out the shop for many options.) Second is 3×4 cards for Project Life. These are great additions to the Project Life kit at Becky Higgins. And finally, if you missed any of the freebies from the blog hop, now is your chance to get them. Check them out HERE

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner! My design team has been working on some cute Valentine’s packaging ideas. Today I have projects from both Joy and Natalie to share with you!
The first box was created by Joy Dickson. I love the patterns and colors Joy chose for her boxes. I also love the little sentiments she added. What a fun way to present a gift! This “Candy Box” is made out of a single 8.5×11 sheet of paper! Here’s what Joy has to say:
“Today I used Lori Whitlock’s great Candy Box 3D file and some bits of soft and pretty floral ribbon to create these romantic and useful boxes. I cut the boxes out using my Silhouette Cameo.”
The second project is by Natalie Graham and is a darling way to package candies or treats for Valentine’s Day. This is the largest candy box that I offer right now. It holds 6 of the scalloped divider boxes inside. But, I have candy boxes that hold 4, 3, 2, and 1 divider as well. So, no matter how big or small you’d like to make your box… there should be one that’s just the right size. Here’s what Natalie has to say:
“Now who wouldn’t love one of these – a sweetheart, a child, maybe a teacher? It looks a little intimidating, but it was a quick project. I used Lori’s 6 candy box found here and her heart shapes found here. And thanks for a fantastic store called the Bulk Barn – filling it with coordinating treats made it a breeze!”
I’ve been busy designing quite a few new collections for Echo Park Paper. I’ve seriously been SO EXCITED to share something with you!! Echo Park released just a couple of layouts and the logo for one of the new collections that I designed called This & That. This & That is a “dual” collection with both a masculine and feminine side.
The layout on the left uses paper and embellishments from “Charming,” the first part of the twin collection. The layout on the right uses paper and embellishments from “Graceful,” the second part of this collection. There are so many fun patterns and embellishments to this huge collection and I can’t wait to show the rest of it to you! Keep your eyes open. It should be on their site on Sunday. I’ll post more upon my return from CHA.
I have three items of business this morning… First off. I’ve decided to have a 25% OFF SALE!! Use code LW25 at checkout to receive the discount until midnight. Just so you’re aware, some customers have been having trouble with receiving their files from the auto-generated download link email. Please rest assured that I’ll make sure everyone receives their files and that they are working for you. Do not respond to the email that arrives with your auto-generated links… I don’t get those emails (I’m not sure where they go… but not to me… lol). Make sure you email me directly at info@loriwhitlock.com with any order problems. I’ll take care of your order ASAP (usually within the hour if it’s during the day). I am working on a better “store” option. However, this may take me a couple months to figure out.
Second item of business…. DT member Corri has a darling set of heart boxes she’s created to share with us. These will make great little Valentine’s gifts. My daughters and I will have to make some! Here’s what Corri has to say:
“I used Lori Whitlock’s Heart Box file. I love this box! It’s so simple to assemble….it cuts in one piece and all you have to do is add glue on two tabs and attach a ribbon. Lori has a YouTube channel now with tutorials for some of her boxes. I used Echo Park’s For the Record which was desgigned by Lori. This is one of my all time favorite paper collections….it’s so versatile you can use it for all types of projects.
For this box, I cut Lori’s Lock and Key file and the included heart to dress it up. I attached key with a little rhinestone brad.
And, the last item of business…
Today I released a digital collection over at Design House Digital called “Kiss Me” just in time for your Valentine’s projects. And it’s 30% OFF TODAY ONLY! Go check it out HERE.
