Shadow Box Bee Card Tutorial

Hello friends! Traci here and today I have the cutest little card to share with you that’s perfect for summer. I made it using one of Lori’s awesome cutting files called Shadow Box Bee Card (SVG, Silhouette) and I’m so in love with all the pretty layers!

I’ve had so much fun creating with Lori’s Bee Happy Collection that she designed for Echo Park. So, I chose the honeycomb print from it called Life is Sweet for the front and the solid green for the leaves and stems. The colors were perfect. 

Here’s a quick tutorial on how I put the card together …

Cut out all of the white pieces first so that you can see how
the colored pieces are going to be adhered.

Add your colored patterned paper to the white cardstock pieces before gluing the 2 card bases together. 

Then adhere one of the base tabs to the back of the other base as shown above. The other tab (on the right side in the photo above) will be what you use later to secure the front with.

Adhere all of the fun colored pieces to the 3 inside white scenes.  

Then add the scenes inside the shadowbox base. Start with the blue flowers first, inserting the tabs into the slots on the sides.

Repeat this for the bee scene, then continue with the last one that has the red flowers.

Once they are securely in place, you can close the front of the card and adhere it to the tab on the left.

And voila!! You’ve got an un-bee-lievably cute card to send to someone special. When it’s open, it can stand alone on a shelf, desk, or counter for display.

But when it’s being sent through the mail or stored, it can be folded flat. I hope you have fun with this one! Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a great day!
