Happy Birthday Box by Aimee

Hi crafty friends! Aimee here today with a tutorial on merging cut files to create a project tailored to your needs. I merged 3 files to create this birthday boy gift box with an adorable little frog on it.

To get started, I pulled up these 3 cut files…Star Top Box Square (Lori’s Shop or Silhouette)

Treat Bag Frog (Lori’s Shop or Silhouette )

Gift Card Holder Balloons (Lori’s Shop or Silhouette)

I pulled the frog and balloons along with happy birthday sentiment and resized them to fit onto the panels of the box.

Then cut out the pieces in the colors I chose for my box and adhered them together. Next, I adhered those pieces to my box, folded on the score lines of the box, and then put the box together.

This cute box is perfect for any small treat, money, or gift card. It could also be used with pinks and purples for a little girl’s gift box.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Make Your Own Party with Michelle

Recently, I found myself without a handmade card for a special birthday. No Card? I felt horrible! knew that I needed to step up my game, and keep a few special cards on hand. Lori has some adorable pop up cards in the shop and everyone loves a Pop Up Card!

Paper Birthday Hat and Pop Up Card

For this set, I used the Pop Up Birthday Card Presents file that can be found in the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop or at the Silhouette Design Store. Just for fun, I made a coordinating Party Hat from the A2 Princess Party Hat file at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop or the Silhouette Design Store. To make the hat extra special, I added a bit of crepe paper embellishing and a cute paper flower. The file for the flower is also found at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop and the Silhouette Design Store. All of the pretty papers came from the I’d Rather Be Crafting line of papers and embellishments by Echo Park Paper.

I’m pleased with how cute they turned out as well as how easy they were to make. I also feel good knowing that I have a cute birthday card ready when I need it.
