3D Wheelbarrow

This is another 3D project using a Sizzix die. It looks so sweet after adding lollies/candy into it.
Youtube tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwTH04CPbFs

Items used:

Wheelbarrow die by Sizzix

Strong glue

La Carta Weave in Crimson 12x12" cardstock

Sam & Lucy's self adhesive glitter foam in red and green

Cardboard (from an old cardboard box)

Ink

Die cut 2 sets of the wheelbarrow shape out of cardboard. Then die cut another 2 sets out of cardstock making sure you flip one of them around so the front of the cardstock will be facing out once you put it together (this is especially important for cardstock like the La Carta Weave or Bubble that have texture on the front).
You will also need a piece of cardboard 2 3/4" wide x 6 5/8" long and a piece of cardstock 2 3/4" wide and 12" long to cover most of the centre piece of the wheelbarrow. There will be a small gap so a small piece that is 2 3/4" wide and approx 2" should be able to cover the gap if you need it.

Adhere the centre piece of cardboard with the La Carta cardstock. Thenadhere the rest of the cardstock pieces onto the matching cardboard pieces.

The pieces should now look like this.

Adhere the centre piece of the wheelbarrow to the back of one of the wheelbarrow shapes.

Adhere the other wheelbarrow panel together

I added some black ink to the pieces before adhering them to the wheelbarrow. I also inked the edges of the wheelbarrow to create shadow effects. I cut stars out of Sam & Lucy's self adhesive glittered foam sheets and adhered them to the sides of the wheelbarrow.This wheelbarrow is great for adding candy or lollies inside or can hold some items you want to store.

This wheelbarrow I created is for decorative purposes. I filled it with foam and covered the foam with cardstock and added flowers on toothpicks into it. I also glued a lace ribbon around it.

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and inspired you to make one yourself! Take care :)

3D Pram/Stroller/Baby Buggy

Using the same concept as the birdhouse tutorial to put these together. These are Sizzix dies which I've had for a while now and have found a fun way to use them! Try it out yourself :)

3D Bird House

A fun project using the Sizzix Birdhouse die. It is die cut out of a cardboard box I had handy.
The video tutorial is on my Youtube channel by clicking Youtube on the side link or the URL is

Die cut 2 of the birdhouse shapes from cardboard and a rectangle piece that is 6" x 1 3/4"

Shape the rectangle to create walls and floor of the birdhouse. Glue down to the back one birdhouse shape til set.

Glue down the other birdhouse shape.

Paint the birdhouse frame and set it to dry or use a heat tool to dry the paint quickly.

Cut out 4 rectangle and fold in half:
Largest size is 7 7/8" long x 2 5/16" wide
Next layer is 6 1/8" long x 2 5/16" wide
3rd layer is 4 1/8" long x 2 5/16" wide
Last layer is 1 7/8" long x 2 5/16" wide

Punch a decorative border at the ends of the roof shapes and ink the edges with Antique Linen distress ink.

Adhere lace between each layer edge

Adhere the largest roof layer first and then stagger the rest of the roof shapes finishing with the smallest on the top.

Embellish as desired with pearl flourish, flowers, bird from the Tim Holtz birdcage die and adhere a loop of lace/ribbon at the top for hanging ornaments

This bird house was created the same way but instead of painting it, I covered the birdhouse with La Carta weave paper.
