Fall Leaves Wreath

Hi friends! Today I am sharing a project that was inspired by a creator on Tik Tok. Joleen Emery makes beautiful paper art and one of my favorites is a heart made with paper feathers.

I wanted a Fall theme for my heart, so I used the 6 Fall Leaves 2 (SVG, Silhouette) and cut out 150 cardstock leaves. For the base I used a 10-inch wooden heart but chipboard, cardboard, or even several layers of cardstock glued together would work. I also cut a small hole in the top of heart to add the twine to hang the wreath. Be sure to add the twine before you start gluing the leaves. With hot glue I glued the leaves onto the heart moving around heart shape and repeating that process until the heart was covered. To finish the wreath off I tied a bow to the twine.

I love how this turned out and have plans to make one with feathers too. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great week!

In All Things Give Thanks Ornament Tutorial

Hi friends! Today I am sharing a tutorial for a large Thanksgiving style ornament. I like to hang this type of ornament on the middle of a wreath. I used the In All Things Give Thanks 3 file (SVG, Silhouette).  The other supplies are a 6-inch wood round, heat transfer vinyl, twine, and a wood bead.

I sized the image to 4.463 x 4.301 to fit onto the six-inch round. I then deleted the round and sent the image to cut.

In Cricut Design Space when using heat transfer vinyl, the images must be mirrored for each mat so that the images cut correctly.

After weeding all the words. I dry fit all of my vinyl on the round just to make sure it all fit and to work out the placement. (I did change the word things to the darker color. The gold was just too light.)

Then with my heat press I attached the words to the wood round. I set my press to 300 degrees for 20 seconds. Let the vinyl cool slightly then peeled off the clear backing.

I added a bead to the twine then looped it through the hole in the top of my round.

Last I hung the ornament to the middle of my wreath.

I love how this turned out. It is a perfect addition to this wreath and will look so pretty for Thanksgiving.

Pumpkins Sweets Spooks & Treats Sign

Hi friends! Today I wanted to share a cute little sign I made for my Halloween tiered tray décor. I used the Pumpkins Sweets Spooks & Treats file (SVG, Silhouette). I used my Glowforge laser cutter to engrave the image, but the same look can be achieved with vinyl. This saying would also be really cute on a shirt with iron on vinyl. This sign will be so cute in my kitchen for the spooky season.

Bakery Box Card Assembly Tutorial

Hi friends! I’m stopping by today to share a tutorial for the Box Card Bakery (SVG, Silhouette). This card is so darling and would make a fun birthday, get well soon, thank you, or just because card.
I cut out all of pieces in various shades of cardstock and then inked around the edges of most of the pieces in matching colors to give them a little depth.  The bakery sentiment was done using the print and cut function of my machine.
This card does have several small images and for me the easiest way to assemble them is using a sticker maker. The adhesive is strong with no mess or glue seepage that can happen with wet glue.
First, I folded all of the score lines into mountain folds. Then glued the white panel on what will be the inside of the card. This panel is to cover the holes for the door and window.

I then assembled the bakery sign, and awning. Dry fit the white pieces before gluing into place. Each little piece has a correct place on the awning. The image cuts the stripes in the right order. If you are careful when taking them off of your mat and keeping them in order, you won’t have a hard time assembling them.  Or if you are like me and go willy-nilly pulling everything off the sticky mat it isn’t too hard to figure out the correct placement.

I attached the door and window frame first. Then added the awning, the top trim piece, then centered and the bakery sign. I also added the smallest bread loaf, donut, and cookie to the window display.

For the insert I added the pretzel and largest loaf first then added the donut.

Now it’s time to assemble the box card. Flip the card base over so that the inside is face down on the table. With the insert face up, valley fold the tabs, and add glue to the right tab only. Glue down on the card base. (I added the X to show where to glue.)

Line up the tab with the top of the card base and to the left of the score line.

For the left tab, valley fold the tab, and add glue. Then fold over the left side of the card base. (Aiming for the spot where I have drawn the X.)

Hold until the glue sets.

The box card is ready to be closed up. Add glue to the last tab on the left then fold the right side of the card over. making sure everything is lined up.

Now it is ready to be sent off to someone special. Thanks for stopping by today!
