Hi there friends! Have any of you felt like it is January 35th and there couldn’t possibly be another week of January? Well there is. But thankful one of my favorite holidays is just around the corner.
I love sending valentines to all my favorite people and Lori has several new ones in the shop. This cute little train and panda caught my eye and I just love how it turned out. It is the Box Card Valentine Train (SVG, Silhouette).

Thanks for stopping by today!

Doodlebug Design Cut File Feature: Love Notes

Kathy used the Love Notes 3D Mailbox file which is exclusive to the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop.
For more details, you can see her original post here. New Doodlebug Design SVG files are being added to the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop on a regular basis, so stop by to see all of the fun SVG files HERE!
Have a great day!
Valentine Gumball Shaker Card
Hi everyone! Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and I fell in love with this little gumball box card that Lori created. When I saw it I knew that I wanted to turn it into a shaker card. You can find this file here in Silhouette Store or here in Lori’s SVG Shop. It’s just way too cute!
To turn this in to a fun shaker, first cut all the pieces below. I cut a few extra gumball pieces just in case I wanted to add them to the shaker but they ended up being to big.
Next cut 12 more of these pieces. You need this many to stack and create enough depth to hold the sequins and such.
After you have all these cut, start layering them and glue with a good strong adhesive. Layer 10 of them together, then add a piece of transparency on the and the back side of your layered piece. I used the same glue for this too. Then add the 11th frame piece to finish the back side. Fill with beads and sequins. You can see the depth of your shaker window in the picture below.
Add another piece of transparency to the top and then the final frame piece to seal your the shaker pieces inside. Assemble the Gumball Box card and Glue this shaker in place to the front piece of your gumball machine.
These are so much fun to give and receive and it will still fold fairly flat for mailing.
Thanks for joining us today!

Happy Valentine’s Day Layout
Happy Wednesday crafty friends! Aimee here with you today sharing a new layout that I’ve created using one of Lori’s new Valentine SVG files but really this file is good all year round.

It is the Love Words Heart file (SVG, Silhouette) that is great for creating any kind of project to let someone know that you love them in any language.
To get started on this layout, I opened the file up in Silhouette Design Studio. I resized the file to 10″ tall so that I could have a couple of inches on the top and on the bottom. The width of this cut file is 6.8″…that will leave plenty of room to the left and to the right for your strips of patterned paper and some embellishments.
Once you have run your white cardstock through your die cutting machine you will want to back it with a solid color cardstock. I chose a red cardstock to back mine. Then all that is left to do is decorate the surrounding areas.
I used the fabulous Echo Park Little Lumber Jack collection for my layout. It was really easy to pull some of the pieces to create this Valentine layout. And I did sneak a red Valentine’s Day sticker from one of Lori’s older Valentine’s Day collection.
Thank you so much for stopping by today! Hoping this gives you some ideas of how to use some of Lori’s new SVG files to create a layout.
