Box Card Tractor Tutorial

Anita here with a fun card tutorial to put together Lori's Box Card Tractor (SVG, Silhouette).  I made this for my grandson and used John Deere type colors as my inspiration.

Here are the pieces that I cut.  Because I wanted my tractor to be yellow and green I cut extra pieces of the inner part of the box card with the seat and the engine and also the end covering pieces.  I then trimmed them to fit and glued them on.

 I folded the grey tractor card base on the score lines and glued the tab in place.  I then put the tires together.

This photo shows how I put on the extra piece on the insert that goes in the middle of the card.

Here is a photo of the card lying flat all ready to be mailed off.  

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Hugs,

Lori Whitlock Bunny Head Box Tutorial

 

Anita here with a tutorial to make Lori's Bunny Head Box.  You can find the files here (SVG, Silhouette).  I used some of Lori's Echo Park Paper collections for this box including Wish Upon a Star and Celebrate Spring.  I am going to make these to give to each person who comes for Easter dinner.  They will look so cute on my table and will be filled with yummy sweets.

Here is a photo of the pieces that you need to cut out for this box.

The next photo shows the face and ear pieces glued on as well as the direction the score lines need to be folded.

This photo shows the sides of the box glued together which was the first step in putting the box together.

After the sides are glued together the insert hexagon piece gets glued in to cover up the tabs that were visible when you glued the sides to the bottom of the box.

Lastly you can see how cute the box looks with a little Easter grass in it and some chocolate.

This went together quickly and easily.  Hope that you have a chance to try this one out.  Be sure to look at all of Lori's SVG files for your Spring celebration needs.  That's it for me today.
