Box Card Rainbow Unicorn

Hello Crafty friends, today I want to share how I made this cute Rainbow Unicorn Box Card with you!

For my card I chose the Box Card Rainbow (SVG, Silhouette). The Rainbow card is cute on its own, but I wanted to add a little touch of magic to my card, so I have also added the Unicorn from the Unicorn Card (SVG, Silhouette).

To start I opened both files on separate pages in Silhouette. I then copied & pasted my unicorn to the page with the Box Card Rainbow. From here I was able to resize the Unicorn to fit with my Rainbow as the original was a lot larger.

I wanted this to be a Birthday card, so I swapped out the sentiment by typing a new one using the Samantha Craft font then I print & cut.

To start I glued the little black piece to the back of Unicorn shape that has the holes cut for the eye & nostril. Then I added more glue & pasted this on top of the solid Unicorn shape.

After cutting all my pieces I glued the coloured panels onto my white corresponding pieces.

I then folded the tabs on my Rainbow shapes. The back & middle pieces I folded to the front. The small one at the front I folded to the back. Next I glued them all into place one at a time starting from the back, by first doing one side then gently folding the card flat as I go to make sure it placed evenly before I glued the tab on the other side. 

Then I added some foam squares to the back of the Unicorn & front Rainbow/Cloud & Cloud pieces to get some dimension on the card.

Lastly I adhered the cloud pieces & my Unicorn onto the card & finished off with some Star & Heart enamel stickers to embellish.

The box card folds flat to fit into 5x7 envelope!

I love how this turned out!

St Patrick's Day

Happy St Patrick's Day crafty friends!

Today I want to share with you some fun cards I created using one of my favourite paper companies Doodlebug Design. Please note that I am not affiliated in any way, this is just my honest & personal opinion. I have always loved the bright, whimsical, fun cardstock & you have probably noticed I use it a lot in my creations. The thing is, I do not just buy the cardstock...... I buy loads of Icon Stickers, Sprinkles & more, but seem to collect these items more than I use them! Sound familiar?

Some time last year I purchased some icon stickers from the Lots O' Luck Collection. When my goodies arrived I noticed I had accidentally place 4 of the same sheet in my cart! Woops!

Yesterday I decided I was going to take these out & make some St Patrick's Day cards for today. 

For my first card I created a white 5x7 base and layered with gold metallic cardstock to create a frame for my Petite Prints Limeade Gingham paper. I then topped and layered various die cuts with different papers from the Lots O' Luck cardstock & placed my sticker sentiment from the This & That sticker sheet on top with some foam on the back to give it dimension. I die cut a scalloped frame & placed some Leprechaun icon stickers on top. Then I added a couple of Sprinkles to embellish.

For my second card I started with a 5x7 white base. I cut some strips from the Lots O' Luck Bonnie Lass Paper & added an extra strip on the bottom from the So Charming paper. I cut another white cardstock & die cut from the base using one of the Doodlebug Borders & Edges dies. I added foam to the base for dimension & stuck it down. I added a thick strip from the Rainbows End paper then placed a die cut scalloped circle on top in the middle of the coloured paper. Lastly I added my adorable unicorn from the icon stickers with added foam underneath again for dimension. Lastly I used the Lucky Charm Sticker from the this & that sticker sheet & embellished with some sprinkles.  

 Don't you just love the Leprechauns & Unicorns in this collection!
