“Just Chicken In” box card tutorial

Happy Thursday my crafty friends. When I saw this cute little chicken card, the A2 Shaped Box Card Chicken, (SVG) it reminded me of soup, and since everyone around me is currently sick with some cootie or another I thought this would be the perfect little project.

First cut all your pieces. As always I have my Cricut write my words on the tag.

Fold your pieces on the score lines

Add your adhesive to these pieces

Glue your beak, wattles and comb to the chicken insert. Don’t put the eye on yet.

I added the insert piece into the box. I put it as close to the front as possiable as I wanted to use it as a box with goodies too.

Once my box was assembled, I added adhesive around  the square part on both the front and back, 1 side as a time.

I put the bowl shaped pieces on the fron and the back.

This is where you will attach the eye. Top left corner of the bowl piece.

I used pop dots to pop the wing (heart) piece on both back and front. Embelished with a little bakers twint on the tag.

I added a soup packet and kleenex as well as some tylonal and cough drops. I did place a piece of packing tape along the bottom to keep my goodies from falling out.

Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting!

Get Well Tissue Wrap Tutorial

Hello everyone and Happy Thursday! Hope you aren’t having a “ruff” day and this “doggone” cute get well card brings a smile to your face.  (SVG, Silhouette)

First thing I did was change the words to write rather than cut then I cut all my pieces and inked the edges for that finished look. Then assembled the “paws-itively” adorble little pup.

Add the heart last so you make sure its in the right spot and don’t have to move it.

Add your words to the red pieces and add the 2 red pieces to the top and front of the tissue hole. Add your score tape to the end flap.
I found this was easier to adhere and get it lined up by laying it flat like the above photo. If you are like me and and had a “faux-paw” while trying to adhere this by eyeballing it and got it crooked, you can heat the back with a blowdryer or heat gun it will losen the adhesive and make it easier to pull apart without ruining the whole card.
Add the pup and the “ruff day” word bubble to the top portion.
Add your tissue (make sure the package of pocket tissue that you buy has the hole in the center and not on an end).

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a “paw-some” day!

Happy Crafting
