SVG Cuts Lighthouse and card

Hi all! I love making 3D papercrafts and SVG Cuts is my go-to source for fantastic projects!!! I love their unique projects and the how-to videos make assembly a breeze!!! I fell in love with the Seaside collection ..... here's my lighthouse I made from the set;


 
The card is the fish card base from the set , but I stamped an image from CTMH's Perfect Day set.... this lighthouse image is my favorite .I used my aquapen and ink pads to add touches of color and for a nautical finish, I added a Carrick Bend knot (aka sailors knot) to both the card and lighthouse. The anchor is from another SVG Cuts file ( Cape Cod) . All shapes were cut out on my Silhouette. The papers used are from Graphic 45 's collection called By The Sea.
 
You can check out SVG Cuts YouTube channel for detailed instructions on how to make this cool project!
 
Thanks for stopping by.... have a great day!!

All At Sea giftbox

Good morning! Recently SVG Attic had a huge sale (I think it might still be on!!!) in which all of their cutfiles was just $1 -can you believe that!!! I bought a whole bunch of 'em and now I'm having so much fun playing with the various projects, like this giftbox from the All At Sea file.



 
I imported the file into my Silhouette Designer program.Unfortunately, the files do not automatically convert to Silhouette cutfiles so I had to convert each file ( this took up the better part of an afternoon as I had many files purchased!!!).I wasn't sure on the sizing , so I just played around and this box ended up a wee bit under 6 inches high and about 6.5 inches in diameter. It's big enough for a decent size gift but I'd had to make sure the item wasn't too heavy. I used CTMH cardstock which cuts like a dream but it's not all that sturdy and has a white core... which showed up more in this pic than in RL.
The starfish elements are from CTMH as well and because they are light , they don't weigh the lid down. I stamped an image( on a canvas tag) from Stampin' Up!'s Uncharted Territory set which I colored with my Copic markers. This box was fairly simple to make but I think I'd probably make it smaller the next time.
The svg set All at Sea has a couple of cards, a giftbox and bag - an awesome value for just a dollar!!
 
I hope you enjoyed my little project today.... thanks for dropping by today!!
Have a great rest of your day!!
