July 4th Shaker Star Tutorial

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing a quick assembly tutorial for Lori’s Shaker Star (SVG, Silhouette).    To make this, you will need cardstock, chipboard (I used a soda box), a dowel or straw and a piece of clear acetate.   I normally use transparency sheets for the clear part but this time I used a piece of a clam shell package from some craft supplies.

When you cut out all the pieces, this is what you will have plus a bunch of confetti pieces that will go inside the shaker.

First, glue the three chipboard stars together.  This step creates a spacer that will allow the confetti pieces to shake.

Next, glue the chipboard to the solid red star and glue the star frame piece on top of the acetate star.

Now you can add the confetti pieces to the inside of the star and then glue the clear star on top.

I wrapped the paper strips around a pencil to form into corkscrew shapes.   I glued those and a wooden dowel to to the back of the completed star and then cut an extra star “back” to cover up where they were attached.

There you have it!  Super simple to put together and so much fun!  The kids will love to wave them to celebrate the 4th!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Tiered Mountain Box Card

There are still a few days before Father’s Day to make a card for your favorite dad.  I used a mountain box card file for a Father’s Day card.  I used some ink to make the background look like a sunset and I added a Happy Father’s Day sentiment. You could also use this card for any occasion for someone that loves the mountains.

You can find the A2 Tiered Box Card Bird Mountain File here in Lori’s SVG shop and here at Silhouette. The tiered mountains are really fun.

Have a great day!

Bee Humble Loving Yourself Happy Kind Sweet Sign

Hi there friends! I’m dropping in today to share this cute new bee file with you today. (SVG, Silhouette) I made it as a sign to hang in my home but it would also be awesome on a t-shirt. I love the message and that bee is darling.

I cut the design from wood using my new Glowforge laser cutter and Silhouette Studio Software.  I love that I can use Lori’s SVGs with my new machine! You could also create this using layers of chipboard or paper.  I hope your week is great! Thanks for stopping by!
