Double Gatefold Card Ladybug Tutorial

December 28, 2023December 27, 2023

Hi everyone! I hope you are all getting rested up from the Holidays! I have a quick tutorial to share with you today that features Lori’s new Echo Park Collection Little Ladybug. It’s just so fun, all kinds of darling patterned papers and makes us dream of Spring. Especially, after our first blizzard of the season here in South Dakota, the day after Christmas. Oh the Joy!

The file I used today is the Double Gatefold Ladybug Card or here in the Silhouette Online Design Store.

First, cut your pieces with desired papers.

Next, fold in on each score line creating a double fold like this.

You can see here how your card will double open.

Ink the edges of your patterned papers.

And adhere to the cardstock base, add a few enamel dots to the antennas.

Then I just double layered a couple tags from the collection and added a few more enamel dots, and there you have it. A quick and easy card. I forgot to take a photo of the envelope, but the file also comes with an envelope that the card fits perfectly.

Who doesn’t love ladybugs?

Thanks for stopping by!

5×7 Grid Pop Up Card Tutorial

March 2, 2023May 24, 2023

Hi there friends! Today I’m sharing a tutorial for the new 5×7 Grid Pop Up Cards. I am using the 5×7 Grid Pop Up Card Butterfly (SVG, Silhouette). These cards have the pop-up wow factor of a box card but are much easier to make and they fold flat for mailing! These cards are also great scrap busters I didn’t need to cut into a new 12×12 sheet paper for any of the pieces.

Once I had everything cut out of 80lb cardstock I inked the edges of the treetops, flowers, and butterfly. This file also has a print and cut sentiment that is glued onto the back of the treetop (not pictured).

I then assembled the insets. For the small flower pieces, I used my sticker maker. When I glued the butterfly together, I only added glue to the center body portion to give the wings a little more dimension.

Now to assemble the card. There are three green base pieces two smaller and one large. Each one has three slits cut into them. The smaller bases are for the outside and the large one goes in the middle.

Starting with the trees slide each base into the slits at the bottom of the tree panel. The bottom edge of the tree panel and the bases should be level and touching the table. Now add the butterfly panel and the flower panel the same way.
