Bee Humble Loving Yourself Happy Kind Sweet Sign

Hi there friends! I'm dropping in today to share this cute new bee file with you today. (SVG, Silhouette) I made it as a sign to hang in my home but it would also be awesome on a t-shirt. I love the message and that bee is darling.

Lori Whitlock Creative Team Blog Hop June 2021

Hi there friends! Welcome to the Lori Whitlock Creative Team blog hop. Todays hop order is Traci, Kathy, Anita, Brandie, Aimee, Ashley, Cathy, Michelle, and Marcia.

This month I made the Box Card Summer Vacation Bronco (SVG, Silhouette). This card is so cute as is but when I saw it I knew I wanted to go a more Southwest route. I left out the middle insert with the surf board and added a saguaro cactus. I love when a project instantly inspires more creativity.  




Thanks for hoping along with us today! Aimee is up next.

Best Teacher Ever Card Tutorial 5/6

 Hi friends! I have a quick tutorial on how I made a card with the Best Teacher Ever file. Now that Cricut has updated the design space software making a shaped card is easy!


  First I resized the apple and leaf to be 5 inches high which made the width 3.96 inches. This file uploaded into Design Space grouped together for me. If it isn't grouped I recommend grouping it together before resizing.


With the apple selected select the offset feature on the edit tool bar. In the offset window I slid the distance bar to 0.25 inches, selected rounded corners, and left the weld offset box checked. 


I then duplicated the offset and flipped one of them horizontally.


Next I moved the two offsets together so they are touching in the center. With the just the offsets selected I aliened them on the bottom and welded the offsets together creating one piece. 

I added a score line to the center and aligned and attached it to the offset. (I changed the color from black to white for this picture.) 

I needed a solid white apple for the inside of the card and the front of the card.  I duplicated the red apple and welded the image then hid all of the contours. I then duplicated the solid apple image so that I had two. 


I also needed to flip the leaf  horizontally so that it would fit correctly on the front of the card. (If you use solid paper you don't need to do this. I used double sided paper and wanted the green to show.)   


Once everything was cut I glued everything together with liquid glue in a fine liner bottle.  (Be sure to keep all of the centers of the letters from the cutting mat.) I used papers from the School Rules collection by Echo Park Paper Co.

Happy Camper Pop Up Card

Hi there friends and happy Monday! I'm sharing the Rectangle Pop Up Card Camper with you today. You can find this card in Lori's shop and in the Silhouette Design Store.  This card comes together quickly. My only suggestion is to use a sticker maker of the smaller cut images like the window frame. If you need help with the assembly Lori has a video tutorial here



I used papers from the Summer Adventure collection by Echo Park Paper Co. 

That's it for me today! Thanks for stopping by.

Box Card Envelope Flowers

 Hi there friends and Happy Wednesday! I am loving the envelope box cards Lori has been adding to the shop and couldn't miss the chance to share another one with you. This is the Box Card Envelope Flowers (SVG, Silhouette). I love how customizable they are. The file comes with the happy birthday sentiment but this can easily be changed to a thank you, thinking of you, I love you, or anything else you may need. 


The papers I used are from the A Magical Place collection by Echo Park Paper. 

I hope you all are doing well. Thanks for stopping by!
