Cut 2 of the top and glue together, this will make it stronger when you start putting cards in it.<\/li>\n<li>Cut and assemble the back. (Remove the 2 small slits from the classic_bottom.svg file before cutting.) I cut 4 from cardstock before adding your decorative paper. This will help it stand up better.<\/li>\n<li>Cut 1 decorative piece and 3 cardstock pieces for the lace bottom. Glue pieces together. Again, it provides strength.<\/li>\n<li>To attach tissue box to the base run a line of glue on the open end edges and attach to the base. Take extra care to get it centered.<\/li>\n<li>The font I used for the \"Merry Mail\" is Amaze. Size the letters 1.250 high and 8.331 width. Weld the letters together before cutting.<\/li>\n<li>Glue the letters and embellishments to the background and you are finished!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Design Tips<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_6792\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/kathymhelton.blogspot.com\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6792\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6792       \" title=\"Kathy Helton\" src=\"https:\/\/svgcutsblog.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/kathy-helton-svgcuts.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6792\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kathy Helton - SVGCuts Designer<\/p><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Use the Wrinkle Free glue when stacking and gluing the Elegant Framed Invitations pieces and the lace bottom (under the box). You can use regular glue but it gets \"wavy\".<\/li>\n<li>Use a pop dot where you want dimension. I put a pop dot behind the 1\" circle inside the bottle cap.<\/li>\n<li>Pull the holly forward after it dries. Gives it dimension.<\/li>\n<li>I used the Epiphany Crafts Studio tool. If you don't have one buttons would be really cute!Hope you enjoy making this project. Have fun with it! This would be a great time to use up Christmas paper scraps and maybe some leftover embellishments.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love Christmas!
