Hello everyone, it’s Brigit here today sharing a quick tutorial on making this adorable pineapple box. I just added the criss-cross panels from the shaped card pineapple file. You can get both of these files from the Silhouette Design Store, here and19 here.
I used Silhouette Studio to edit my project, I have the business edition and use the files from Lori’s shop so I’m able to save my project as an svg and cut it out with my Cricut Maker.
I imported the pineapple shaped card and only kept the criss-cross piece.
I imported the pineapple box next.
I zoomed in really close and sized the criss-cross to fit inside one of the sides.
I double clicked on the criss-cross piece which brought up point editing and I selected the point in the corner and moved it so it would reach the score lines, I did that on all four corners.
I duplicated until I had 6 pieces, saved, imported into Cricut Design Space and cut out.
Added some twine, decorative brad from Echo Park’s For the Record 2 collection and some brown sequins. The sentiment is from My Creative Time and paper is from Doodlebug Design.
Hope you enjoyed this project, thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!!
Super cute! I’m wondering, though…if you’re already in Silhouette Studio, why move it to Cricut? I’m not familiar with Cricut Maker, but it just seems logical to go ahead and cut from the program you’re already in. (Please don’t make me want to go buy another machine! )
Myra, I have an older Silhouette Cameo machine, I bought the Cricut Maker but I like the Silhouette Designer Business Edition software much better, it has way more features, I do though like in cricut design space when you send to cut it sorts by color, so together I feel I have the best combo for me, lol. It only takes a minute to save and import, I do have to resize it though, it doesn’t import at the correct size but I just leave the silhouette Designer open and and copy the size.
Beautiful Box Brigit! I love it!
Darling project, Birgit! I love how you repurposed other files to suit your needs. Very crafty 🙂
