Today I have a layout featuring a birthday and a missionary farewell. I used a template (rotated) that can hold many photos, and I also use Lori’s Called to Serve Collection. I also used some elements from Fine and Dandy and the Kraft Paper as well.
That’s it for me today, have a great day!
Hello Everyone:
Anita here with a fun and easy tutorial for the Flat Front Shutter Card Birthday which you can find here in Lori’s store and here in the Silhouette Design Store. I used one of Lori’s brand new Echo Park lines called Sweet Baby Girl. It was perfect for a soft and feminine card.
Here are all the pieces. There are several that are small so remember to keep track of them.
I put together the pieces of the card and glued everything down before I started folding. It is much easier to work on the folds that way.
Your first step is to crease the fold to the right of the cake and you will be folding it so it pops up when lying flat.
I held the card in my left hand and pressed gently down on the middle score line with my left hand and held it in place while I used my right hand to score it across the fold. You will be creating a valley fold here. As you can see the folds on the top and bottom of that section just naturally pop up the way that they are supposed to be creating hill folds.
I folded up the right side of the card and used a bone folder to gently strengthen my score marks. On the smaller pieces you will be scoring through two of the folds.
Here is a view from the top so you can see exactly what it should look like.
Lastly, here is the closed card and as you can see it lays flat and can be popped in an A2 envelope to be sent off to someone sweet.
Thanks for looking and be sure to check out Lori’s shop for more great cards of this type.
Hugs,
Anita

Hi Everyone:
Anita here with a fun tutorial to make this mini baby album. My brother’s girlfriend just became a grandmother of a beautiful baby boy and I made this album for her to fill and to share with her friends.
This is a photo of the cut file. It is called Baby Layered Mini Album and you can find it in Lori’s store and in the Silhouette Store. I mixed and matched some wonderful collections from Echo Park to make my album including A Perfect Winter, A Perfect Autumn, A Perfect Christmas and I Love Family. I bought 1.5 inch colored rings from Amazon for the album.
I decided that I wanted each page the same print/color so I used the replicate function on my Silhouette to mirror the left tabbed page to the right so that I could glue them together to create a heavier page. I then cut both pages from the same paper and adhered them back to back.
I then used the rectangle tool on the left side bar to create a white piece to be a photo mat. I like to put the item I am trying to match the size on my mat.
Here is the sized rectangle on my mat.
Here is a photo that shows the other rectangles that I created for the pages of my album. I then cut two of each for each page of the album.
I used Lori’s font called Wide Marker at the 56.0 font size and moved them on to the bottle to see how it would look.
Here are the pieces for my album.
There you have it. This worked up very quickly and it so cute. Can’t wait to send it off to it’s recipient.
Hugs,
