Princess Explosion Box

Hello everyone! Marcia here today. I have a niece that just turned 2 and I found the perfect card in Lori Whitlock’s Shop to give her. She is going to love this Princess Explosion Box Card (SVG, Silhouette). I used the Echo Park Paper Our Little Princess collection that Lori designed. The box has a lid with the cutest bow.

When the lid is removed, the sides and front of the box fall down revealing the pretty princess inside. The sentiment on the front flap is included with the cut file. I used the print and cut feature for my Silhouette Cameo.

I made a small change to the center castle… I cut it twice so I could layer it giving my castle some dimension. 

I embellished my explosion box with the coordinating stickers from the Our Little Princess collection.


I can’t wait to see her face when she opens it!
Thanks so much for stopping by. Be sure to check out Lori’s Store for more amazing cut files.

Graduation Hat Box Card Tutorial

It’s almost time for all the Graduation announcements to start rolling in and Lori has all the perfect cards for the new Grads.  I have a tutorial to share with you today with one of her new files, and you guessed it…a box card.  It’s the Box Card Graduation Hat in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Design Store.

First, I chose my colors of card stock and cut everything out as you can see below.  I love that Lori colors all of her files.  It just makes it all so easy,

After I get all of my pieces cut out, I find it easier when making box cards or envelope cards, to adhere all the bits and pieces to the main parts while everything is still flat. Not dimensional yet. So here you can see that I have all three of my box card pieces layered and adhered.
Then I add scor tape to all of the tabs, a nice strong double-sided tape works best for these cards.
You can see the scor tape on the tabs, it’s the white strips.
Next, assemble your box and then add your two layers…the hat and the stars.
You can see below how they are adhered inside the box.
These are so much fun to create and give such a WOW factor. Remember they fold flat for mailing too!
I adore how this turned out. Just so fun for the Graduate!
Thanks for joining us today!

NEW! Spring Cottage!

This week I felt inspired to design a cute new spring cottage. Once I designed the cottage, I decided that it turned out so cute that it needed some coordinating cards to go with it. So, this week I have released four darling new SVG file projects in the shop and you can get them all 30% OFF by using code: APR2023 at checkout at shop.loriwhitlock.com. All the files are available individually or in the bundle. The cottage measures slightly over 9 inches tall. It’s such a cute project and would make the perfect home decor item. Change up the colors and embellishments to match any season. Check out the projects below…

These projects would be perfect to make for Mother’s Day, a thank you, a friend’s birthday, etc. I hope you have fun making them!

Have a beautiful day!
