Baby Crib Box Card

Baby Crib Box Card

Well, Mary and Leo have done it again! This adorable crib box card is from the svgcuts “Tiny Miracle SVG Kit” which you can see HERE. The kit contains several adorable baby-themed projects including cards, a scrapbook layout, a diaper castle, and a bottle shaped gift box. They provide the svg files that you can cut with your electronic die cutting machine, and you choose the papers and embellishments. Once all the pieces are cut out, you assemble them into these amazing, handmade gifts for your next baby shower or to celebrate the birth of a new baby! A tutorial VIDEO is provided to make assembly a breeze.

I plan to use this “card” (which opens and stands as a 3-D crib or folds flat) as a gift card holder which I will tuck inside a traditional card (which you can see HERE). However, there is a space on the back of the crib for writing or stamping a message so this “card” can stand alone as well.

I used the following paper and card stock for this girl-themed project: Core’dinations April Lovely, Colorbok Heidi Grace Designs bgirl buggy (double-sided), Melissa Frances Betty-Ann, Paper Pizazz green/pink plaid, Core’dinations light pink plaid, and white. I inked the edges with Gina K Designs Bubblegum ink and used Copic Marker R83 for the bear’s face. I added a few pink pearls to finish it off.

I also made a blue version of this project that I can use for an upcoming baby shower where a boy is expected.

The papers used on this one are: Core’dinations jaybird, Paper Pizazz mixing baby stars and moons (I think – I only have one sheet and cut through the paper description!), Colorbok blue stripe paper, Core’dinations light blue small dot, and white. I used Gina K Designs In the Navy ink for the edges on this card.

Winter House Gift Box

Winter House Gift Box

This gift box was made from a kit from svgcuts called Winter’s Chill SVG Kit. Click HERE to check it out at svgcuts.com.

The kit contains svg files of all of the pieces needed to create this box. I used my Cricut Expression with my Sure Cuts A Lot 2 software, but I could have used my Silhouette or any electronic die cutting machine that can cut svg files. I selected all of the paper I wished to use and set up all of the cut files on separate “pages” by grouping images based on the type of paper I wanted the pieces to be. Once all of the pieces were cut out by my electronic die cutting machine, I assembled and glued everything together and ended up with this amazing box! SVGCuts has great tutorial videos that go with each of their their projects to help with assembling the pieces. (HERE is the You Tube video link for this project tutorial, or you can watch it on their site as well.)

This box can be assembled with any paper you choose (and with or without the snow) so it can be made for a variety of occasions. The windows are lined with vellum so a battery operated tea light or two placed inside makes the house glow. (Don’t use a real candle!!!)

Autumn Lantern

This lantern was made from a kit from svgcuts call Crisp Days Of Fall SVG Kit. Click HERE to check it out at svgcuts.com.

The kit contains svg files of all of the pieces needed to create this lantern. I used my Cricut Expression with my Sure Cuts A Lot 2 software, but I could have used my Silhouette or any electronic die cutting machine that can cut svg files. I used a metallic bronze card stock (Recollections) and vellum for this project. Once all of the pieces were cut out by my electronic die cutting machine, I assembled and glued everything together and ended up with this amazing lantern! A battery operated tea light placed inside makes the lantern glow. (Don’t use a real candle!!!) SVGCuts has great tutorial videos that go with each of their their projects to help with assembling the pieces. (HERE is the You Tube video link for this project tutorial, or you can watch it on their site as well.)

This lantern can be assembled with any paper you choose. Also provided in the svg kit is a plain panel to which you can add your own design so it can be made for a variety of occasions. I actually made a beach themed lantern a while back for a challenge on stamptv. (HERE is the original post.)
