Succulents Box Card

Hi there crafty friends! Today I am sharing the Box Card Succulents card (SVG). I was inspired by the Our Happy Place paper collection by Echo Park Paper. This collection has lots of potted plant imagery and a lovely color palette. I thought this box card would make a cute card for a plant lover. I added a few pen details to the cactus and a good vibes sticker from the paper collection. 



I love the how this one turned out. Thanks for stopping by today.

Valentine Rainbow Box Card Tutorial

Hi there friends! Today I am sharing a tutorial for one of the new Valentines box cards. You can find the bundle here. I made the 5x7 Box Card Valentine Rainbow (SVG, Silhouette). This card would be really easy to customize too. The sentiment is a print and cut and could be swapped out for a birthday, new baby, anniversary, or left off completely. 

The papers and stickers come from the Valentines Day collection by Echo Park Paper Co. Once I had everything cut out, I inked the edges of the pieces for added depth. I also added some white highlights to my ballons with a white paint pen. I then glued the colored paper on the inside front card for the heart arch. Starting the with the largest arch I glued the rainbow down to the front of the box card body. This box card only has one insert. I glued the ballons first, then the banner, last the flowers. I didn't cut the flower middles opting for some enamel dots.


I folded the tabs into valley folds and added the glue to the back of the right tab. The right tab is lined up with the inside score line of the box card body. I then added glue to the back of the left tab, folded the left side of the box card over on top of the glued tab, then added glue to the tab of the box card and folded the front of the card over. 


I added a couple of stickers to the front of the box card from the collection. 




This card is so pretty and a fun way to show someone you care. Yay love!

Lori Whitlock Creative team Blog Hop January 2025


Hi! Welcome to the January 2025 blog hop! Today the hop order is Lori, Traci, Brandie, Ashley, Cathy, Chelsea, Sue and Noelene. We are glad you are here today and hope you find some creative inspiration along the way.  
As a maker I'm always thinking ahead to the next holiday or celebration. This hop is no exception, so of course I made a Valentine card. I used the Whole Heart Whole Life 2 (SVG, Silhouette) to make a slim line card.  The papers are from the Valentines Day collection by Echo Park Paper Co. 


I love how simple the card is the layered paper heart is just enough. 

Thanks for hoping along today. Ashley is up next.

Until next time,

Brandie
