Farmhouse Box Cards with Cathy

Hi everyone!  I’m sharing a couple Farmhouse Cards with you today…they are just so cute.  I couldn’t resist making these.  You can get the whole farmhouse bundle here in Lori’s SVG Shop.  I love them all, it was hard to choose which one’s to make.  You can find the Milk Jug Box Card SVG here and the Flour Canister Box Card SVG here.  You can also find the Milk Jug Box Card here in Silhouette and the Flour Canister Box Card here in Silhouette.  These go together quickly and fold flat to mail.  I just love the vintage style of Lori’s Designs for this bundle of cards and it worked perfectly with her new collection for  Echo Park Farmer’s Market.

Thank you for stopping by today and please share your creations with us!  ~Cathy

Tractor Box Card Tutorial

Hi there friends! I have a quick tutorial for the Box Card Tractor (SVG, Silhouette). This box card is so cute and versatile.  Once everything is uploaded into Design Space be sure to attach the score lines on the card base and the middle insert. I cut all of the pieces out of various colored cardstock.  There is three pieces for each tire. I used a Xyron sticker maker for the four smaller rings. The white ring stacks on top of the tire first then the thinner back ring stacks on top of white ring.

The insert only has one colored piece to glue into place and the two tabs on the ends are valley folds.

For the body of the card there is two tractor body pieces, a small rectangle, and a small square. The rectangle in glued in the middle of the body pieces and square is glued on the end. Fold all of the score lines as mountain folds. While the card base is still laying flat the two larger tires are glued on the outside edges with the smaller tires glued in the middle. Add the glue to only half of the smaller tires. The other half of the tire will be off the edge of the card base once the card is assembled. Flip the card over and fold the left side over and apply glue to the tab then fold the right side over on top of the tab to close up the card. You should have a tractor box now.

For the middle insert add glue to the tabs then line up the front edge of the tab to the front of the box card. Hold to secure the glue and repeat on the other side of the card.

Fold the card flat to check that everything is lined up and that the card will fit into an envelope.

To embellish I added a floral sticker from the A Slice of Summer sticker book by Echo Park Paper Co.

Now this card is ready to be mailed off to someone special! That’s it for me today. Thanks for stopping by!

You’re One Cool Dad Happy Birthday

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a very cool card card to share with you! This is the Cooler With Drinks (Lori’s SVG Shop, Silhouette) card that folds flat for easy mailing. It was part of the Father’s Day card set but Dad may just deserve a beer on his birthday too!

I love the sentiment on this one but wanted to make this a birthday card for my hubby. I highlighted and deleted the “Happy Father’s Day” part of it and left it blank. Then I made a print and cut of the sentiment along with a Happy Birthday banner from one of the Box Card Envelope files.

Then I adhered the happy birthday banner over the blank space of the cooler sentiment piece. It turned out amazing and he loved it! Always think outside the box to see how you can manipulate a file or add to a file to turn it into what you need.

Thanks for stopping by today!
