A2 Santa Claus Card

Hello crafty friends, Noelene here today! I want to share with you a cute Christmas card from the Lori Whitlock file called A2 Santa Claus Card ( SVG, Silhouette). This is such a cute fun card to make.
Once I cut all my pieces I embellished the red layer (including his hat and suit) with a Christmas holly swirl embossing folder. This was a simple step, but effective I think. Then I glued my pieces in place. I cut a strip of gold & red Christmas ribbon & glued it down onto the base of my card. Lastly, I glued everything into place, and used foam squares to pop Santa up for some fun dimension.

3D Lantern Belly Christmas Characters

Hello Crafty Friends, Noelene here today. I wanted to share with you some of the new release Lori Whitlock 3d Belly Lantern Christmas Characters.
The bundle (SVG) comes with 6 characters which include, Gingerbread Man (SVG, Silhouette), Santa (SVG, Silhouette), Snowman (SVG, Silhouette) & Reindeer (SVG, Silhouette), Gnome (SVG, Silhouette) & Penguin (SVG, Silhouette) . Today I have featured 4 of those with a little twist in the Gingerbread Man.
I loved the Gingerbread Man so much I wanted to make a little Gingerbread Girl as well. This was very easy to do. I turned his bow tie into a bow. To do this I just made a copy of the bow tie then using the copy I moved the 2 bow tie pieces together until they touched. I then simply fused them together by using the weld tool in my Silhouette studio. I also wanted to give them some candy so I used some of the candy from the 3 Story Gingerbread Dollhouse (SVG, Silhouette).

I also made the Reindeer & Santa. For my Santa I have used white polar fleece on parts of his clothes. I have never had luck cutting fabric on my Silhouette. So I chose a more simple approach. I cut the white cardboard pieces then glued onto them the polar fleece. I placed something heavy on them as they dried to keep them flat. Once they were dry I just trimmed off the excess polar fleece around the shape. Then proceeded putting my Santa together as normal.

Lastly my Snowman

5×7 Santa Claus Box Card

Hi there!  Seems the summer has flown by and it’s time to start thinking about the holidays.  Lori has quite a few new Christmas files new in the shop.  So for you early Christmas card makers you can get started now.  I used her new 5×7 Santa Claus Box Card in the shop or you can find it in the Silhouette Online Design store.

I love to make Lori’s box and envelope cards, they are my favorites.  I couldn’t resist this one and I love how he came out!  They are so easy to make and they fold flat for mailing.  I’m hoping to get an early start on my Christmas cards with these adorable files.  Wish me luck! ~Cathy

 

Holiday Cards

 Hello everyone! Marcia here today. I have some holiday cards to share with you today. No, it’s not too late to make and send holiday cards! New Year is a holiday so for me, it’s ok to send a card after Christmas. I love to send holiday cards to friends and family as well as receive them. I especially love a box card that can sit on a tabletop or counter and doubles as home decor. This Hexagon Pop-Up Christmas Tree Booth With Reindeer Card (SVG, Silhouette)  and the Hexagon Pop-Up Santa’s Workshop Card (SVG, Silhouette) cut files can be found in Lori’s Store along with many other varieties of holiday cards. I used the new Echo Park Paper Have A Holly Jolly Christmas collection.

 

 

Stop by the Lori Whitlock YouTube channel for tutorial instructions on how to assemble the hexagon pop-up cards. Don’t worry about how you will mail it; these awesome cards fold flat for mailing.

Gift Card Tag Santa Tutorial

Hello everyone, Marcia here.  Christmas is creeping up. I am a big fan of giving gift cards so my recipients can pick out their own gift but I like to make gift card holders to put them in. I selected the Gift Card Tag Santa (SVG, Silhouette) to make for my gift cards this year.  There is a pocket on the back side of this tag that holds the gift card. I used Lori’s Have a Holly Jolly Christmas collection to create my tags.

These are really easy to assemble. Let me show you how.

1. Cut out the pieces from the desired pattern paper or cardstock.

2. Fold the tag along the score lines folding the flaps up. Apply glue to the flaps and adhere to the back of the tag to form the pocket.

3. Adhere the white beard and Santa suit trim to the top of the tag.

4. Slip the black belt through the belt buckle and adhere to the bottom of the tag. Add the two black buttons above the belt on the white trim.

5. Add ribbon or other embellishments as you wish.

 

Check out Lori’s other gift card holder designs in the store and make some of your own. Thanks so much for stopping by.
