Print and Cut New Years Eve Party Favors by Tya Smith

Hi blog friends! Thank you so much for stopping by during this crazy time of year! It’s great to have you here! My design style is based on simplicity! I adore a quick and easy, yet super creative idea especially during the busy times of year – So today, I thought I would share with you a couple of New Years Eve party favors. One of the main reasons why I love using Lori Whitlock’s files is that they are darling (of course) and they are so easy to put together. I also utilized my Print and Cut feature on my Silhouette Cameo – another time saver for me and a great way to use some of my favorite digital papers from Lori’s collection. Let me show you what I did!

 All papers are from the Birthday Fun Patterns Digital papers found on Snap Click Supply.

 

I did a french fry style box for my Midnight Kisses favor. Add a few Hershey Kisses to the bag, tie a bow and you are set!

 The label on the front highlights one of my favorite new fonts called LW Curious- isn’t it darling! I also added some enamel dots for some dimension as well.

The next favor was originally a candy holder, but what New Years Eve celebration is complete without a little confetti? I added some fun star shaped confetti to the inside of the box.

 

One little change I did to this file is that when I went to tie the tuelle, there was a big hole in the box ends that the confetti would leak out of, so I just added a 3/4 inch circle punched from cardstock to cover the ends up.

So hopefully I have inspired you to whip of some of these fun little favors for your New Years Eve festivities.

If you have kids at your party, how fun would these be for them? Thanks for stopping by, and stop by my blog http://simply-tya.blogspot.com/ and say hi! Happy Holidays!

5×7 Shadow Box Cards

I’d like to introduce you to my brand new 5×7 Shadow Box Cards. When I developed these, I was trying to figure out a cool new 3D card concept. After a few prototypes (and a couple of disasters), these charming little cards were born. I’ve created several different designs that work for Christmas and Winter. I’ve also created a video tutorial for these cards. If you’d like to watch the tutorial, be sure to scroll to the bottom of this post where I’ve embedded it, or you can click HERE.

Thank you for the overwhelming positive response to these cards! I’m so glad you’re enjoying them. Please feel free to post your creations to my Facebook Page or even enter them in the current challenge located in the right column of the blog.

You’ll find the Silhouette Cutting files HERE.

You’ll find the SVG cutting files HERE (and, YES, they are Cricut Explore friendly)

I thought it might be helpful to see all the design options in one place:

Have fun crafting and Happy Holidays!!

 

Merry and Bright Shadowbox with Cathy

Hi Lori Whitlock fans…Cathy here with you today and I have a quick last minute gift idea to share with you!  I created a shadow box with one of Lori’s Christmas Phrase Set 1!  I know that this isn’t the most original idea out there but they are really quick and easy to make.  Lori Whitlock has so many wonderful phrase sets that the possibilities are endless for creating these shadowboxes.

I started with and 8×8 white shadow box and added an 8×8 piece of black chalkboard paper from Lori’s Echo Park Christmas Cheer collection.  Just adhere this piece to the back of your frame.  Next, fill your frame with tiny ornaments or jingle bells.

I cut the Merry and Bright out of gold metallic Oracle 631 vinyl.  I scaled it down to the size you can see below.  The preset vinyl setting on the Silhouette cuts is beautifully with a nice sharp blade.  Weed your vinyl and transfer the saying onto the transfer paper.    Then just adhere it where you want it to be and just like that you are done!  Easy Peasy!

Such a super cute set!  If I need another last minute gift, I will use the Jingle all the Way and fill it full of multi colored jingle bells!

And as I mentioned earlier, that Lori has so many phrases that the possibilities are endless for these shadowboxes!
