To create my card today, I used two different files, the a2 car shaped card, here on Silhouette and just the tree from the red truck and tree file that you can find here on Silhouette.  The tree from the red truck and tree file fit perfectly on top of my little car card.  So cute.  I just added a bit of twine to tie my tree down and an enamel dot, brads for the hub caps and a little sticker from the collection~loads of winter fun!  Adorable.

I had fun creating a box card with Lori's new lemonade glass box card (silhouette) or here at Lori's Shop.  This card is just too cute, folds flat to mail and just screams summer with that fun little umbrella and straw.  There are lots of new box cards and pop up cards available from Lori.  They are just simply one of my go to things to create.  I very seldom make a flat card...lol!  You have to give them a try.

I have a fun project to share with you featuring 
Lori's Hydrangea Explosion Box (Lori's Shop) or here for the Silhouette Design Store.  I made this amazing little box with Echo Park's I Love Summer Collection designed by Lori.  It's fun to make and it has little pockets to fill with gift cards, photos and the in the center the sweetest little box of hydrangeas. 

I topped my box with a pretty fake flower that I couldn't resist.  The file comes with a paper flower for the top but I just wanted something big and bold for the top.

Simply pop the top of the box off and it explodes!

You can see all the little pockets and tags here!  Too cute.

And here you can see all the little flowers, you just need a styrofoam ball and some straight pins.  I chose some colorful ones just for more fun!  This turned out super cute.  Can't wait to put a gift card in and a couple photos for a special friend!

Make sure to hop through all the stops below...tons of inspiration from all of these creative ladies.

I have the cutest project to share with you today....Lori's 3D tent box!  You can find it here on the Silhouette site or here at Lori's shop.  It was super easy to put together and is just adorable. I used Echo Park's Summer Adventure designed by Lori to create the box.  I love how Lori color codes her files, so it make every thing go faster to cut.  Just simply sort the colors and away you go.  
The top of the box comes off to stash a little treat inside.  Lori also has a tutorial you can find here on this project.  She shows you how to adhere the tent together, and it makes this project go super fast.  I added some embellishments from the collection and inked everything with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.

Thank you for joining us today, your next stop is the amazing

I created a fun little succulent garden with Lori's files.  I made these for a display at work that has tons of little figurines for fairy gardens. We need a way to display the little gnomes, frogs and such.  So these little guys turned out so cute and wow! are they easy to take care of.

Here's a list of the files I used from the Silhouette Online Design Store.
