3D Hot Cocoa Mug with Cookies for Santa

Merry Christmas Crafty Friends!🎅 Noelene here today!
Did you make sure you left some cocoa & cookies for Santa?
Today I am popping in for a quick tutorial to show you how I made this cute 3D Hot Cocoa Mug (SVGSilhouette) & Cookies for Santa (SVGSilhouette), from Lori Whitlock.
First cut out all your pieces & glue your panels on.
Next glue the 2 handle pieces together then glue the handle tab to the inside of a mug panel.
Now valley fold all your mug tabs & start glueing each piece one by one. It helps to slightly bow the panels inward before you start glueing.
Now fold the tabs down for your cocoa lid. Next take the white froth piece & fold inwards each panel. Then gently one by one overlap each panel till they sit in place, but do not push down all the way. Now glue the froth onto the cocoa lid. The lid sits on top so you can put some treats inside the mug.
To make your saucer & plate, valley fold your scored plates & glue the end tab on the base.
Then, take the hexagon piece & glue it down onto the bottom center.
Then on one of the plates, stick down your biscuits. I used foam tabs to create a bit of dimension. Now, mountain fold your cookies sign & you’re done!
They make the cutest little gift with treats inside! Or even a prop for your Elf on the Shelf!
Don’t forget to check out all the other 3D Mugs, which include 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Penguin (SVGSilhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Santa (SVGSilhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Snowman (SVGSilhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Gnome (SVGSilhouette), 3D Hot Cocoa Mug Polar Bear (SVGSilhouette).

Cookies For Santa Layout

And the countdown to Christmas is on! Who’s ready? NOT ME!! But I did take a great cookie decorating class recently to have some cute Christmas cookies and what a better way to show everyone the cookies than creating a layout!

I used the Echo Park Paper line that Lori designed called Santa Claus found HERE.

I used 3D Cookies For Santa SVG from Lori’s website found HERE. But instead of making it a card, I added a background to the words and used it as a title. I cut one of the cookies and turned it into a shaker piece for one of my embelishments.  The rest of my embelishments were sickers and chipboard pieces from the paper collection.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

5×5 Christmas Mini Album with Traci

Hello everyone! Traci here and today, I have a cute little Christmas scrapbook to share with you titled Eat, Drink, and Be Merry. I made it using one of Lori’s fabulous cutting files called 5×5 Mini Album with Gusset Pages (SVG, Silhouette) and it’s the perfect small size for gift giving this holiday season!

Eat, Drink, and Be Merry Christmas Mini Album

Lori’s files make it so easy to create the sweetest handmade presents and this one was super simple.

Eat, Drink, and Be Merry Christmas Mini Album

 

The album is made with a cover piece and 3 gusseted pages (which gives you 6 scrapbook pages inside). To start, I cut the base out of white cardstock then decorated the pieces with paper and embellishments from the Bella Blvd, Merry Mingle Collection.

Here is a photo of the gusseted edges. The white pages go in the cover piece and the holes line up perfectly for binding.

I ran 3 strands of twine through the
cover and each page, then tied them in a cute knot on the inside.

Next … the decorating! I layered the pages
with 12×12 pattern papers, photo mats, and colorful embellishments.
And that was it! See? Sooo simple and such a fun project! 

Here are the other pages for some holiday inspiration …

While I decorated this mini album in a festive Christmas theme, the cutting file is literally a blank canvas and could be designed with ANY paper collection. Imagine winter, Valentine’s Day, spring, Easter, Mother’s Day, or … anything! I love Lori’s projects … the possibilities are endless. 💕
