Graphic 45 
Princess 
Pumpkin Carriage

Hello dear G45ers! 
Sharing my love for off the page a pretty Pumpkin 
Carriage featuring the gorgeous Princess Collection.

I have created this piece with the help of my 
Silhouette and lots of die cut elements. I also used
the chassis arch accents, foot board and wheels from
another carriage cut file (provided below) and the base
has been cut from foam board and decorated.

Carriage Chassis Arch Accents, Foot Boards, and Wheels
  by Snapdragon Snippets Design ID 114406

Herewith the Supplies and Instructions you 
may use to recreate such a project:

Graphic 45 Supplies used:
Princess Collection 12x12 Paper Pad
Other Supplies:
Various Dies
White Cardstock
Lace Border Punch
Metal Embellishments and Chain
Flat Back Pearls
Rhinestones
Pins
Lace & String
Foam Board
Double Sided Tape
Soft Matte Gel/Glossy Accents 


Cut a pumpkin box from the collection sheets.
Adhere the tabs with red double sided tape.
Tip: I always use the red double sided tape
for my off the page projects. It makes
assembly easier and also prevents the
project from falling apart.


Cut some chassis arch accents and foot boards from 
the pattern sheets and white cardstock. Remember that
you will need to cut two sets. One for each side.
Tip: Cut 2 extra shapes from white cardstock as
 well as from the pattern sheets for each piece. 
To be layered on top of one another, thus making
 it sturdy enough to support the weight of the wheels.


Cut 4 sets of wheels 10 of each from white cardstock and
 the inner piece which you can call the 'mag' of the wheel
 from the pattern sheets. Cut 8 of the 'mags' for each 
side of the wheel.
Tip: Layer the 10 sets of wheels on top of one another.
 Ten on each side in other words you should
 have 40 wheels in total. This will make it 
sturdy enough to support the weight of the box. 


Cut a few die cut shapes for decoration.


Cut a 'door', a few butterflies, and flower die cut elements.


Cut a piece from foam board measuring 14.5 cm x 18 cm 
for the base of the carriage. Mat this piece of the same 
size with pattern sheets. Cut some strips (30 cm) and 
punch the edges with a lace border punch.


Fussy cut some elements from the 8x8 paper pad collection.
Mat the princess sticker onto white cardstock and cut...
(I know it's upside down lol :) )


Adorn the wheels with some metal embellishments
and flat back pearls.


Add a G45 metal key and adhere the metal door 
knob on top to be used as the 'handle' of the door.
Tip: Adhere with a soft matte gel or glossy accents,
 thus making sure it doesn't fall off. 


Add some heart chipboard pieces.


Add some string underneath the flowers 
and a rhinestone in the centre.
