You’ll want to make this easy box for cards. Grab the free tutorial!

April 13, 2026

I shared this fabulous box for gifting or storing cards in on last week’s Live video. It’s one of those projects you NEED to make!

I found a similar project on Pinterest but the measurements weren’t for A2 cards so I reconfigured it and came up with this one. I love it and the fact that it’s super easy makes it a must have to save among your project ideas.

I used Secret Sea card stock, the DSP and with the retiring Branching Out dies (so sad!) for the front. The Secret Sea bordered ribbon is perfect to wrap and tie into a bow for giving.

If you don’t have these Branching Out dies; I think they’re a must have! Get them ASAP before they’re gone for good.

It features the Lovely Blossoms suite; especially the Lovely Blossoms designer paper here and the Lovely Arrangements bundle seen here.

I added three cards & envelopes inside the box but it would fit 5-6 cards if they’re not too thick.

I’ll share the cards in my blog post tomorrow. But in the meantime the template for this box is below.

I created a free project sheet for both the box and the cards. Please click here to print or save it!

The video tutorial is below; please watch it to see how to assemble the box.

Expressions in Kindness kit is back! And the sale ends today!

October 31, 2024

The Expressions in Kindness card kit is gorgeous! Look at these stunning cards…..

Save

This beautiful kit has been out of stock for many weeks. I'm so glad it's back in time for the kit promotion. It was $23 and is now $20.70 but that price ends today! See it here.

The kit is meant to make 8 cards but one set of the card bases is printed on both sides. I couldn't waste it so I trimmed it to add to both White & Blackberry Bliss card bases. I did have to add two greeting labels to get 12 finished cards but that's all I added besides extra envelopes.

Save

Here are the other 2 sets of cards; I didn't change much.

Save

Our kits are all inclusive which means everything is included including a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, envelopes, gems, ribbon and adhesives.

Even though I consider myself an experienced stamper I love our kits. They give me a chance to create without a lot of prep or planning. They're great for gifts or last minute crafting.

Last of our Team swaps include a neat technique and a fun fold

October 30, 2024
Today I'm sharing the last three card swaps from my Team in October. Our theme was winter or Christmas.

First is Roxann's card. It's a Christmas village scene!

Save

She used the Yuletide Village stamp set seen here. She also used the Falling Snow background stamp; which she heat embossed with White powder.

She fussy cut all of these homes, church and trees! It's so pretty and real looking!

~~~

Next is a fantastic technique made by Tracey. You might think she used designer paper here…..

Save

It's not! She made her own stamped background using watercolor paper and three colors of ink. Here's how she did it:

She thoroughly wet the watercolor paper before stamping the snowflake images in the following inks: Pool Party (looks like green here), Balmy Blue & Boho Blue. When you stamp on the wet paper the ink travels and blends together but leaves a faint impression of the snowflake images sometimes. Simply gorgeous!

The snowflake die-cuts are from the Frozen Edges dies seen here. The greeting and snowflake images are from the Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set seen here.

Measurements of the layers are as follows:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4", Textured white layer 5 3/8" X 4 1/8", greeting strip 5 1/2" X 1"
- Blue background is 4 1/8" X 3 1/4"
- Watercolor paper strips – left to right – 1/2" X 3 1/2", 3/4" X 3 1/2", 1" X 3 1/2" and 1 1/2" X 3 1/2"

Next is a pretty fun fold made by Rita.

Save

She used the Winter Meadow designer paper and the Encircled in Nature dies (seen here) for her trees. The front panel (White) is adhered to a flap that is part of the card base. It's a neat fold!

Her card base measures 11" X 4 1/4", score at 2 1/4" & 5 1/2". Then make a mark at 1" from the top and 1" from the bottom on the 2 1/4" score line. You'll trim off the outer portion and that creates a flap for the White layer which measures 3 1/4" X 2".
