80th Birthday Card

Last weekend we got to celebrate the 80th birthday of my fiance’s uncle, Dennis. Perfect oppertunity to make this fun card.

I used the pop up birthday card (SVG, Silhouette). I changed the Happy to a writing image rather than a cut. You know me and those little tiny letters. I used papers from the Echo Park Dino-Mite Collection. 

 

Such a fun bright card. The SVG from Lori’s shop comes with birthdays 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 so it’s a versatile SVG that you can use over and over.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!!

5×7 Card Happy Birthday Words Tutorial

Happy Thursday! Teri here. I’ve been a member of Lori’s team for several years now but I work mostly behind the scenes. Today I’m going to show you how to put the 5×7 Card Happy Birthday Words card together. You can find it here: SVG, Silhouette.

I love this card! It’s so versatile. You can use masculine, feminine, patterned papers or even one color. It’s an amazing card! Let’s get started.

First, I cut out all my pieces.

On the reverse side of the card front and using a thin glue bottle tip, apply glue to the very edges of the first H and the marks.

This is what it should look like.

Next, apply glue to the edges of the A and the marks above it.

Then apply glue to the edges of the other letters. There should be enough room for each letter so that none of the colors should not overlap.
After all the letters have been glued in place, apply glue to the edges and in a couple of spots in the center of the card. Then apply it to your card base.
There you have it! All done and super cute!
Enjoy your day!

Pop Up Drawer Birthday Cat

Hello everyone, Marcia here today. I love giving gift cards for all occasions and am always looking for a unique way to present them. For my cat-loving friends, you would love the Birthday Cat Pop-up Drawer Gift Box (SVG, Silhouette). I used pattern papers from the Lori Whitlock Life Is Beautiful collection. It looks like a normal box when closed.

When you pull the drawer open, the panel with the cat pops up. Inside the drawer, there is a gift card holder. You could place other things in the box instead if you wish like candy or other treats.

This cut file can be found in Lori’s Store along with many other varieties of pop-up drawer gift boxes. Have fun creating!

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Explosion Box Dinosaur Tutorial

Oh my Gosh everyone!  Lori has designed the cutest new collection for Echo Park and I just couldn’t wait to play.  Dino-Mite is just that, dynamite.  The cutest dinosaurs, colors and patterns.  I had so much fun putting my project together and digging through the collection to find all the perfect pieces for my explosion box.  You can find the Dinosaur Explosion Box here in Lori’s Shop or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.

First, cut all of your pieces. Sort your pieces to make assembly easy.  I started with the lid of the box.

Fold your lid on the score lines to start to create the shape, adhere your patterned paper pieces and then add scor-tape to the tabs.

Adhere your tabs and you’ve now got the lid for your box.

Next, we will create the bottom of the explosion box. On one side you will add the 3 panels for the bottom the box and scor tape on the 5 tabs.  The extra piece you see here is the very bottom of the box, which goes on last.

Flip the bottom of your explosion box over and add the remaining pieces as shown.

Now fold and adhere into a box and add your bottom square.
You should now have this as your base.
Next up is adding the 3 inserts inside the box.  Lori makes the easy for us by numbering them.  Disclosure:  One of my favorite things to do when creating with Lori’s amazing collections is use the darling stickers and elements from the paper packs as part of the card.  I replace some pieces with the stickers.  I just dust the stickers with baby powder.
The original file is darling, I just couldn’t resist these stickers.
Fold on the score line and add scor tape
Insert your pieces next.
Now for the fun part………….EMBELLISH!  This does not fold flat for mailing. So it might have to be hand delivered.
The bow is easy peasy, is just loops together.  You don’t need my assistance here.
Adorable!
Thank you for stopping by today!

Tuesday Awesome New SVG File!

NEW FILES – 25% OFF this week!

Check out the new SVG file project that I designed for you this week! The best part is that this new SVG file is ON SALE 25% OFF through Sunday at midnight in the SVG Shop. This project has been a labor of love and I’m super happy with how it turned out. This is the only new release we have for the week and it’s a special one. I designed a birthday card organizer that includes compartments for pens, 5×7 cards, A7 envelopes, and a print+cut birthday date planner that you can make. It also includes 3 drawers to store stamps, washi tape, paperclips, and tags in. I think you’re going to love it! I also have an assembly tutorial video for you on my YouTube Channel.

Note: I’m sorry that there are not more new releases this week, but my 91-year-old father fell and broke his hip this weekend so I’ve been helping him through surgery and the beginning of recovery. We have a few hard weeks ahead as he recuperates from this. But, he’s a trooper so we all have hopes of a good recovery for him. Everyone careful out there!
