Hi friends! I know I know it’s a little early for some of you, but I have moved on to Christmas crafting. I was inspired by the Have a Holly Jolly Christmas Collection by Lori Whitlock and Echo Park. I loved all the gingerbread houses and baking elements. So cute. I saw this Snow Globe Shadow Box Card Gingerbread (SVG, Silhouette) and thought it would be perfect with this collection.
This card comes together fairly easy. If you have a hard time with traditional box card assembly, try this version. I thought this was much easier. The toughest part is the tiny pieces used to decorate the gingerbread house. There are two inserts, the snow globe frame, and the decorative elements. All of the folds are mountain folds. I assembled the tiny pieces first. I used a fine tip glue bottle to get everything assembled then glued everything down on the inserts. The front insert has the round peppermint candies, and the back insert has the house. The door and the window are glued down after the house is in place. The decorative panels all glued to the outside of the snow globe frame.
Once all of the outside panels were secure I flipped the card over and glued down the decorative background of the snow globe. I embossed mine with a snowflake embossing folder. The two inserts have tabs that will slide into the slots. I then gently folded the inserts over and slid the other tabs into the slots. I added glue the tabs on the snow globe base and folded the front of the card over and made sure everything was lined up and held for a few seconds while the glue took hold.

Hello friends! Traci here and today, I’m sharing a cute house-shaped card for fall that I made using one of Lori’s wonderful cutting files. It’s actually titled Christmas House Card (SVG, Silhouette) but I re-imagined it with fall-colored papers and created an autumn version!
I used the Echo Park, I Love Fall Collection designed by Lori and chose the 12×12 solid papers in cream/ brown and orange/green. The tan paper used for the brick shapes is the 6×6 print called Autumn Woods.
I changed the Merry Christmas sign to Hello Fall Y’all with the Silhouette software and the text feature. Then, I embellished it with some cute enamel dots.
This is a great card for a house-warming, welcome to the neighborhood, Thanksgiving, or to let someone know that you are thinking of them this season!
Here is the cutting file I used …
I love finding different uses for a cutting file by changing the paper, colors, wording, etc. Please give this Christmas House Card a try. It makes a beautiful card for any season!
