Hey everybody – happy first Thursday in September! I want to know how it got here so fast! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a super cool box card featuring cowboy boots, sunflowers and daisies. I’ve had an absolute ball playing with my Cricut and used the Cyndy G SVG Boots SVG cut file for this one which I totally love! I used a variety of cardstock in our Lessebo line in addition to a few others to bring it to life. I will admit that there are quite a few pieces but it went together seamlessly and without a hitch!
I cut the box card base, hay embellishment and inserts from Lessebo Brick Orange; sunflower petals and daisy centers from Lessebo Sunset Orange; boot soles, sunflower centers and insert layers from Lessebo Coffee Bean; sunflower center layers from Twine; greenery and layers from Lessebo Moss Green; boots from Silk Glitter Opulent Opal and Stardream Metallic Eris; and daisy petals from Lessebo White.
As I always say… the assembly is the most fun and I really enjoyed putting this one together! I used Tombow Mono Liquid Multi Purpose Glue for the entire assembly along with a few foam squares to pop up some of the elements. I’ve been using another glue in my glue press for a while now and decided to switch to the Tombow for a bit. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Charming Sentiments stamp set in Memento Rich Cocoa ink and cut it with the coordinating Stampin’ Up Sentiment Silhouettes die.
Using a Love From Lizi Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Die, I cut a rectangle for the back sentiment from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Best of Greetings stamp set in Memento Rich Cocoa ink. Love, love, love how this turned out! I also have a cowboy hat box card SVG cut file (also designed by Cyndy G) which I intend to make fairly soon, so stay tuned for that one as well!
