5×7 Barn Easel Card Tutorial

Hi there! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the 5×7 Barn Easel Card Patriotic (SVG, Silhouette). This barn card includes several elements, but the assembly is straightforward. Each piece has at least two layers. Start by gluing down the barn stripes, followed by the roof trim. Assemble the door and windows, then attach them to the barn. Center the wreath around the top window and glue the banner to the middle of the barn. Finally, align and attach the small fence along the bottom and right side of the barn.

The card base consists of two pieces. The top piece features two score lines that are folded as mountain folds. The end fold is glued to the back piece, forming the card base. Attach the green grass strip to the front of the card at the open edge. Apply glue only up to the middle score line on the card base, then center the barn over the glued area, aligning it with the bottom of the card. The truck can now be glued to the front of the card aligning it to the bottom and left side of the car.
The sentiment is glued inside the card near the center. Adding foam dots to the back of the sentiment will help keep the card open, though they are optional.

This barn card is darling and makes a festive decor piece for the recipient. Be sure to check out all of the available options in Lori’s shop. Thanks for stopping by today!

3D Christmas Barn

 Hi everyone!  Welcome to the Christmas crafting season and Wow does Lori have tons and tons of new files to create with.  I fell in love with this little barn the moment she posted it.  You can find it here in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Design Store

I used Lori’s new Echo Park Winter Fun Bundle.  I adore this collection with the blues and pinks and all the adorable little details…the snowmen, the little bear, fox and so many fun elements.  It is just so perfect.

And as it is one of my favorite things to do with Lori’s collections, I used elements from the bundle!  Snowman,  tree stickers and a ephemera piece above the barn doors.  I added a string of miniature lights that I had in my stash.  I just used glue dots to attach those.  So this little box is about 5×7, and on one side of the roof, I did not attach it completely…I can open that little flap and add a gift to give for a special someone.
Thank you for joining us today!
