3D Christmas Santa Bouquet Tutorial

Hello crafty friends, Noelene here today! Today I am sharing a tutorial of the 3D Christmas Santa Bouquet (SVG). 
To start cut out all your pieces. I then embossed my santa suit using a Christmas embossing folder.

 

Glue all your panels in place. I valley folded the small piece of the envelope & applied glue to the tabs. I aligned it to the bottom & sides of the larger piece. This creates the pocket.
Now to create the mechanism.
Fold the little tab then fold the mechanism in half & glue the tab down.
For the easel leg glue the single tab to the back, then wrap the rest around going to the back & bringing it to the front glueing each tab. This is to make the easel leg sturdy.

Next valley fold both ends in so that it forms an X.

Now apply glue to the mechanism making sure you do not go past the fold on the easel leg.
Now place the glued mechanism on the inside of one of the pot panels making sure to align the leg to the bottom. It should sit a few millimeters beneath the top. Now glue the top part of the mechanism only & place the other pot panel on top. Hold down for a minute or so till it dries. Now glue the tabs to the inside.

Next take the larger foliage panel with Santa & turn it over. You want to apply glue on the back of the bottom square part. Now turn it over so you can see your front panels & gently slide it in between the back of your X. The glued square should be stuck onto the back pot panel. Now with the smaller foliage panel you will apply the glue onto the front side of bottom square. This time you will slide it into your X on the front folded part of the mechanism so that the glue adheres to the front pot panel.

To make your bouquet stand on its own gently squeeze the sides of the pot & fold in the leg of your mechanism. To fold flat place it back down again.

3D Rainbow Bouquet

Hello crafty friends, Noelene here today to share another card from the gorgeous 3D Flowers Bouquet 3 release from Lori Whitlock called 3D Rainbow Bouquet (SVG), (Silhouette).
I used foam squares to raise my flowers. I embossed 1 of the vase panels with a pretty swirl & heart embossing folder. I decided to add a cute little unicorn to my card so I used one of the unicorns from Doodlebug Design’s Fairy Tales Collection (SVG), (Silhouette). Lastly I embellished with some sprinkles & added my sticker from the coordinating Doodlebug Design Fary Tales Sticker Sheet.
The bouquet also comes with a coordinating bouquet envelope wrapper & a cute little matching mini card.
