Hello everyone! Marcia here today. There is still time to add some Halloween decor pieces to your home. I thought I would share a Halloween sign I created from a Jillibean Soup Mixed The Media Sign and white vinyl. This Sleepy Hollow Dead And Breakfast cut file can be found here (SVG / Silhouette ).
I love decorating for Halloween! There are lots of Halloween themed cut files available in Lori’s shop. Go check them out. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hello everyone! Marcia here today. Are you one of those people that go all out for Halloween? I love decorating for Halloween! Since it’s almost October, I thought I would share a Halloween treat box with you today. This Witch Hat Handle Box can be found here (SVG / Silhouette ). I used the Echo Park I Love Halloween paper collection also designed by Lori for my box.
Let me show you how I put it all together. First select your papers and cut everything out. Before assembling, I like to ink the white edges of my pattern papers with ink. I do this with cardstock too if it has a white core.
When making a box, I prefer to adhere the panels to the box before folding on score lines and gluing the sides shut.
To add glitter to the witch hat star and buckle cut file pieces, run them through a sticker maker face down. You want the glue on the front side. I like to use a bone folder to rub across the back side of the pieces making sure all the glue transfers to the paper.
Sprinkle the glue side with glitter, or press the glue side down into the glitter in a container.
Assemble the witch hat and adhere to the front of the box along with the Eat If You Dare print and cut label. Fill with your favorite candy before gluing the handle together, a glue dot works well. I love adding bling to projects to make them extra special!
There are four new Halloween themed handle treat boxes in Lori’s Shop and the Silhouette Store giving you lots of options. Go check them all out! Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hello everyone! Marcia here today. September is my sister’s birthday month so I wanted to make her a special card. I love box cards because they can double as decor as well. I settled on this gorgeous Happy Day Flower Truck Box Card (SVG, Silhouette). This can sit on her counter for a week or more along with a vase of flowers and remind her how much she is loved.
I added some dimension to it by adding enamel dots for my flower centers.
Isn’t this card so pretty! It does fold flat for mailing so no excuses there. Go check out all the box cards in the shop and give one a try. Thanks so much for stopping by today. Have a great week!

Hello everyone!
I am so excited to be joining Lori Whitlock’s design team!! My name is Marcia (pronounced Mar-see-ah) Dehn-Nix and I am a cut file junkie. I live in Minnesota with my husband and numerous cats and dogs as I am a foster failure as well as a stray magnet. We also have three adult children who have left us empty nesters as they have ventured into the world. I am a software engineer currently working from home. In my free time when I am not playing with paper, I like to take the dogs for walks, garden, and cook. You can find me here on social media …

One of my favorite things to make are box cards. I love to see people’s faces when I gift them and then watch as they pick their jaws up off the ground as they ask…”You made this?”. So for my first project I decided to make the Corn Dog Food Truck Box Card found here; ( Lori Whitlock SVG Shop / Silhouette Store ).
Due to Covid, there will be no state fair in Minnesota this year and this is the week it would have opened. I am truly missing all my state fair food favorites including corn dogs! I may have to go in search of a a food truck. I kept very close to the original color scheme when making my box card.
These are so fun to make and give. I hope you will give one a try. There are lots of other box card styles available so be sure to check out Lori Whitlock’s Shop. Thanks so much for stopping by today. Have a great week!
