Snow Globe Shaker Card Snowman

Happy President’s Day Everyone:

Anita here with a card that I made to send to my sweet grandson for mail day at his daycare center.  I made this A2 Snowglobe Card Snowman and you can find this file here in Lori’s SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette store.  It even comes with the envelope file to mail your lovely interactive card in.  Lori also has a tutorial for this card on her blog by my friend, Kathy Skou and you can find that here.  I used several different Echo Park Paper collections of Lori’s on this card including A Perfect Winter, Celebrate Winter and My Favorite Winter.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  Be sure to check out all of Lori’s shaker cards.  They are so much fun and my grandson and his daycare teachers loved it.

Hugs,

Anita

Explosion Box Birthday Cake

Happy New Year Everyone.  Anita here with a post today of a lovely, fun, interactive explosion box that I made for my mother for her birthday.  She loves purple and people are always so happy when I send them Lori’s lovely interactive files.  I’m going to write a note on each pocket tab for her.  You can find the file here:  Explosion Box Birthday Cake 2 (SVG, Silhouette).

Here is a photo of the box open with the top part of the cake closed.

Here is a photo of the box open with the top part of the cake open to reveal the treats inside.

That’s it for me today.  Thank you for looking and have a great day.

Box Card Christmas Sleigh Tutorial

 

Hi Everyone:

Anita here with a fun and easy tutorial to make this adorable Box Card Christmas Sleigh.  You can find the SVG file for this card here in Lori’s store and  here in the Silhouette Design store.  I pieced it together using Lori’s Echo Park line called  A Lumberjack Christmas.

Here are the pieces that you will cut out to make your box card.  Just a note, if you are using two sided paper, then you are going to want to reverse the design of the sleigh part that is in the top left corner.  It goes inside your sleigh on the back piece and you will want it to be the color of your sleigh.

 

Start by gluing the Santa, Santa’s Bag and sleigh embellishments to their base pieces.

First you want to assemble the sleigh.  It is formed using the 2 sleigh shaped pieces and the rectangle piece.  Fold along all the score lines.  Attach the front of the sleigh (the longer piece with the snowflakes ) to the back of the sleigh using the tab.  Then add the rectangle to be the front of the sleigh and glue to both sides to complete your “box”.

 

You then want to add your inserts.  Fold the tabs on all the inserts backward, then add adhesive to the outside of the tab.  Slide them in in order…They are numbered along their glue tabs.  The number one (santa) goes in front.  Slide it in to the sleigh box towards the front of the sleigh, ( about 1/3 of the way into the box) and press the tabs to the sides of the sleigh to adhere.   Next, slide the Santa Bag tab in behind the santa tab about the same distance.  You want the inserts to be approximately equal distance from each other and the sides of the sled.  You are done and have a lovely card which folds flat for mailing.  Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hugs,

Anita

Sympathy Cards

Happy Columbus Day Everyone:

Anita here with a set of sympathy cards that I made for a dear friend who lost her uncle recently and he was a significant person in her life.  I love how elegant these are.  I used Lori’s file called Sympathy Card Thoughts Prayers which you can find here in Lori’s SVG Shop and here in the Silhouette Design store.  The second card is called Sympathy Card Comfort Strength Hope and you can find that one here in Lori’s SVG store and here in the Silhouette Design store.  I used one of Lori’s new Echo Park Paper collections called Our Wedding.  The card file comes with an insert that you can put behind the card front but I liked the colors showing through the designs.

 

Lori has cards for every occasion and in these times when you may be choosing to stay closer to home, you can still keep in touch with your family and friends.

Hugs,

Anita
