Father's Day Tractor Box Card

  Hello Crafty friends, today I want to share how I made this adorable Father's Day Tractor Box card!

The file for my project today is the Box Card Father's Day Tractor (SVG, Silhouette).

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

  

I wanted my wheels to have dimension, so I added some foam squares instead of just glueing them down flat.

I then created my box by folding & glueing my tabs into place. I lined up the insert first glueing 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. 

Next I layed my box flat & gently glued the front & back panels onto my box card base. The file comes with a Father's Day message on the back that you can print & cut, but because it is not Father's Day in Australia until September, I decided to leave it out so that I can use this card for my husband's birthday in a couple of weeks. 

My husband is a farmer, so I wanted to add a little farmer inside my box card. I have used the Doodlebug Farmer - On the Farm also available from the Lori Whitlock store (SVG, Silhouette). Lastly I added some Sprinkles to embellish.

The box card folds flat to fit into envelope!

Paper: Doodlebug Design - Petite Prints

For my card today I am using the cute PND Back to School Ellie stamp. This image is perfect to create a Thank you or Birthday cards to a special teacher.

I created my card on a 5"x7" base & cut my coloured panels & layered. I created my sentiment in my Silhouette program & cut it out with black vinyl as I was not able to print it onto my notebook paper. I then transfered it onto my card into place. I cut with my Silhoutee, put together & glued my book stack. After colouring my image & creating my book stack I adhered these down using some foam tape for dimension. Lastly I used some enamel sprinkles to embellish.

Happy Birthday Balloon Cluster Cards

 Hello Crafty friends, today I have some cute quick cards to share with you! 

I have chosen the 5x7 Happy Birthday Balloon Cluster Card file (SVG, Silhouette) from Lori Whitlock. These were very easy, quick & fun to do! I like to have some cards on hand in my stash & these were perfect. 

Not only did I make cards that were fun & bright, but I was able to add silver to blue & white or black & white to get a masculine theme! I definitley never have enough of those in my stash! 

I started out by cutting out all my paper elements.

Now just a quick tip......my Silhouette Cameo doesn't seem to like cutting fine small detail in black cardstock. I have found an easy solution to this by using black adhesive vinyl instead. Once I weed my vinyl I was able to use transfer tape to place the sentiment & the string in place quite easily. I find this process less messy too! No need to use glue to stick down those fine lines.

Next it's just a matter of adhering all the balloons into place & using some foam tape for the front ones to get dimension, like I have, if you wish. Then I embellished with some enamel shapes to look like confetti around the balloons.

 

This card file makes a great activity to do with the kids! As I said, they were so easy to do!

I hope you enjoyed my cards today & give them a try for yourself! 

Supplies:

Paper: Doodlebug Design - Petite Prints

Accessories: Doodlebug Design Shape Sprinkles, Black Vinyl.

I am in the process of creating a Strawberry themed tiered tray for decor in my craft room! In keeping with my blog name, "Berry Sweet Paper Patch", I am wanting to make whatever decor I can out of paper. 

 I have chosen a cute file from Lori Whitlock called Box Card Lemon Scale (SVG, Silhouette). I altered the original Lemon theme to a Strawberry theme by replacing the lemon elements to strawberry elements from the Lori Whitlock Strawberry Basket with Strawberry file (SVG, Silhouette). Once I opened the scale file in Silhouette I slightly enlarged my file. I then opened the Strawberry Basket file & enlarged the strawberries using the lemons as a guide for size. I also included the vine & flowers. I then arranged my strawberries how I would like them to sit in my scales & created an external offset at the exact same size. As you can see in pic below, this is just a backing to glue the strawberries onto & will not be seen from the front.  You can omit this part if you prefer.  After cutting & glueing my pieces together I finished my scale by adding another strawberry, vines & flowers on the front with some enamel dots to embellish.
