My Favorite Fall – Lori Whitlock

Fall Extreme Pop-up Card

November 4, 2019November 3, 2019

As a young girl, I fell in love with origami. From folding paper, it was natural to love pop-up cards and books. I just love that Lori has these fun Pop-Up Cards in her shop. I made the Fall pop-up card, and I changed the sentiment to be used as a Thank You Card.

The card file can be found in Lori’s SVG Shop and in the Silhouette Design Store.

For papers, I used the Echo Park’s My Favorite Fall Collection designed by Lori. The inside pop-up part is done using the Print and Cut function of your cutting machine. Once cut, it all comes together easily. For a tutorial head over to Lori’s YouTube Channel here.

Have a great day!

Fall Gift Card Box

October 21, 2019October 20, 2019

It’s a beautiful Fall here in Michigan and I am enjoying every aspect of the gorgeous new place I live. Lori’s My Favorite Fall collection from Echo Park is just simply perfect, all the pretty colors and Fall elements you need to create with this season. I needed a fun way to give a gift card and Lori had the perfect new file to create the sweetest little gift card box. The box is just simply adorable. You can find the file for the Gift Card Holder here in Silhouette or here in Lori’s SVG shop. Very quick and easy to put together. There are just tons of elements to My Favorite Fall and I had so much fun with the new puffy stickers. They are just too cute. All the new Echo Park collections have these Puffy Stickers…hooray!

I forgot to take a picture that shows a gift card inside, but you can see just where it goes and then how fun to decorate underneath so that the recipient has a extra little bit of your creativity. This little box is so versatile that you will be able to adapt and change it for every theme. A quick and easy project that you will use time and time again.

Thank you for joining us today. Make sure to stop by Lori’s shop and check out here new files at Silhouette Design Store too. There is always just a ton of fun waiting for your die cutting machine with her files!

House Slide Box Tutorial and Assembly Tips

September 5, 2019September 4, 2019

Hello crafty friends! Michelle Zerull with you today to share my new favorite Lori Whitlock gift box called the House Slider Box. I love making little houses and this one is the sweetest because you can put little gifts and treats inside! I also have some decorating tips using Lori’s new paper line called, “My Favorite Fall”.

The digital cutting files for the box can be found at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop as well as the Silhouette Design Store. It has some other cool features as well. so let’s make one together!

First you’ll need to cut out the house pieces with your digital cutting machine. While the house was flat, I glued the door and window in place. I inked my edges so that the score lines would be easier to see, but that’s not necessary for you to make a super-cute house.

Fold the house sides upward and glue to the front and back of the house. Set it aside.

The house “frame” is one long piece. Fold along the score lines and glue the tab to the inside as shown.

Add glue to the frame’s roof and glue the shingled piece in place as shown.

Now the house box will slide in and out of the frame, just like a matchbox. Isn’t that the cutest? Now let’s decorate it!

Lori has a new line of paper and embellishments from Echo Park Paper. The line is called, “My Favorite Fall.” It’s available at retailers now and it has the cutest elements! I discovered that one of the cut apart pages has elements that fit nicely on the side of the house. Look at all of the cute designs you can use!

I also discovered that the puffy stickers (Yes, Puffy Stickers!) are sized to fit this little house perfectly. See the sticker that says, “Thank you?” It fits over the little window. What a great way to show your gratitude!

I added some paper Apple Trees, which are really called, “Easter Scene Tree” to the photo, because every Autumn home should include some juicy apples! You can find the digital cutting file for the tree at the Silhouette Design Store, or as part of a bundle at the Lori Whitlock SVG Shop.
