Baby Diaper Boxes – Baby Shower Favor

May 2, 2022May 1, 2022

Hello everyone! Marcia here today. I am in the middle of baby shower prep … actually it’s one week away and I am beginning to panic. I wanted to make some baby shower party favors for the tables and thought this Baby Diaper Box (SVG, Silhouette) was adorable. I used Lori’s Birthday Boy collection to add some boy colors to my diapers since my son and his girlfriend are expecting a boy.

I added an actual safety pin in my diaper boxes for a realistic look. Some fun washi tape makes it just a bit more fun. These boxes have a lid to close completely so you could even use them for gift giving. A gift card would fit inside nicely.

Lori has lots of baby shower/party favor ideas in her shop. Go check them all out and have some fun making your own party favor boxes!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

State Heart Dingbat Tutorial

February 6, 2020February 5, 2020

Today I’m going to show you a fun way to use Lori’s State Dingbat Font (Silhouette Store) for a baby body suit. Start by opening Silhouette Studio and typing a letter using the font. Most of the States will be their first letter, either lowercase or capital.

You can see in the above image the state of Utah on the mat, in the font the states and hearts have a double line. To delete this select your state, right mouse click and then select ungroup, and then release compound path. Now you can delete one of the outlines of the state and heart.

Now resize for the project. I made the heart a little bit smaller for my project. For my words I used another of Lori’s fonts–Longhand, Silhouette Store. I typed the words “made in” and welded them together and resized. The design is ready to cut.

Since I used Heat Transfer Vinyl,I cut the mirror image and then applied it to the bodysuit.

This is such a fun personalized gift to give new babies. Enjoy!

Baby Bodysuit SVG with Infusible Ink

July 1, 2019July 17, 2019

Welcome to July. I hope that you have fun summer plans this week. I have a baby shower soon, and I wanted to try out Cricut’s new Infusible ink. Lori has many great files that can be used with infusible ink. Most designs that work for heat transfer vinyl will be great to use with the infusible ink. Lori has several baby shirt bundles in her shop.

I used the baby bear cutting file. It can be found in the bundle above or here (SVG) and at Silhouette.

Infusible Ink is applied in a similar way as HTV. But the result is really impressive; the ink is within the fabric. You must use Cricut blanks or other suitable sublimation blanks. (A blank is the surface you are using as a base for the design, in this case, the onsite). I love the result, and I am looking for my next project!

Tri Shutter Card Tutorial with Kathy

June 15, 2017June 8, 2017

Hi Everyone! It’s Kathy today with a tutorial showing how to assemble the new Tri Shutter Cards. Lori has a couple of new Tri Shutter Cards in the shop including the Tri Shutter Card Birthday (here in the Silhouette Store) and this card, the Tri Shutter Card Baby ( here in the Silhouette Store). Take a peek…

This card looks complicated, but it’s really easy to assemble. I started by picking my papers, and cutting the pieces of the card.

Start by folding the base piece, this takes a little thought, but is not difficult. Here are a couple of views of the piece once folded.

Next, add the decorative panels to the base piece.

Using the print and cut feature of your cutting machine, create the sentiment piece. A blank sentiment piece is also included if you prefer to customize it.

Assemble the giraffe piece by layering the pieces onto the white base. The white base then slips behind the lower section of the card base as shown and is glued in place.
