It’s a time of year, and as a parent, I cycle through a range of emotions:
- excitement (Mama’s gettin’ some time to herself!)
- sadness (summer is ending and Mama will miss her babies)
- anxiety (Mama’s baby is off to KG!)
- repeat
Do you Mamas feel the same way? Will a Silhouette Back to School Deal help? Oh yes it will. Scroll on down to get the details and don’t forget to use MARITZA as the promo code. Now, how about a little pencil box project to get you inspired? These boxes I created are made with a really thick cardstock (chipboard is always a great option) and printable silver foil (which is also part of this awesome bundle)
The What
[row] [span columns=”5″]- Silhouette CAMEO
- Silhouette Studio
- CAMEO light hold cutting mat
- Glue
- Cardstock (or Chipboard)
- Printable Silver Foil
The How
Step 1: In Silhouette Studio, I created the shapes and dashed lines below with standard pencil measurements in mind
Step 2: By using the Weld, Replicate and Make Compound Path tools I created the box for the pencils (the dashed lines are fold lines)
Step 3: Similar to Step 2, I created the sleeve which had a window (from the Rounded Rectangle tool). Note that this shape needed to be a pinch bigger than the box, so that it can slide off easily
Step 4: To create the tab for the sleeve, I used the Point Editing tool to make a slanted edge
Step 5: I then used text for the monogram, and created a frame with the offset tool on the sleeve’s window
I folded at the dashed lines, and assembled these cute boxes – perfect for the Big and Small students who are off to school soon!
