Pop up box cards

I am all into making pop-up box cards now a days.  These fold flat for mailing, too.

Same card as above but different papers.  Sure looks like a whole different card.


Christmas trees and ornaments.  A little train going across the front of the box card.

A snow globe box card.

And of course Santa popping out of a box.  All of these are from my favorite company.  www.svgcuts.com
I use a Silhouette Cameo to cut them out but any die cut machine that can cut .svg files will work.  
I left TC to look after all my crafting supplies.  Looks like he fell asleep on the job. The shirt by his paw is a birthday card for one of my sons.

What I have made with cut files from SVGCuts.com

I have been ordering some cut files for my Cameo from www.SVGCuts.com and loving them.  The box card as a picnic basket with the wine has a "Who needs MILK?" stamped image on it from CTMH.  It came with a chocolate stamp set.  I used some Mod Podge Dimensional Magic on the bottle and wine glasses to give them some shine.  Not sure if you can see or not, but I put some glue on some button thread, wrapped it around a skinny paint brush handle and let it dry.  When it was dry, I unwrapped it and made the grapevine twisty things that I added to the grapes on the front of the box card.  The lighthouse measures about 15 1/2" tall.  The row house measures about 14" tall and both have areas that lift off to either put a gift or battery operated tea lights in them.  The windows in both are vellum to allow the light to flicker thru.  The juke box also has vellum and a door in the back to also place a battery operated tea light.




This box can be anything you would like it to be.  A lunch box, a suitcase or an attache.  Make it as fancy or as masculine as you want to fit the person or occasion.
I used some embossing folders on some of the above items, too.
