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.

Tomorrow is the last day; get two pre-cut kits and save on shipping!

May 15, 2020
tomorrow is the last day to get either of my May pre-cut kits to go. I have two choices! You can choose one or both! If you want both I can combine shipping to save you money.

First is the Quick Cards kit; 10 cards including a few unique folds. And they're not all flowery either! Of course you can 'add' flowers if you'd like to……

Save

This kit to go includes $20 in product AND a pre-cut cards kit; all for $28 plus shipping. The product alone costs just over $24 so you're getting the 10 cards kit for less than $4. It includes a full pack of 6 X 6" Regals designer series paper, a full spool of White Flax ribbon and 1/2 pkg. of Holiday rhinestones.

I used the So Sentimental stamp set on my cards. You can substitute any stamp set you own though.

There are three options for you with this kit. Purchase and see them all here.
1. First is the complete bundle that includes the pre-cut cards, product, pdf tutorial AND the So Sentimental stamp set for $59.50.
2. Second choice is the pre-cut cards kit, product and pdf tutorial for $36.
3. Lastly you can purchase just the pdf tutorial; with no kit or product for $15.
*I have a limited number of these kits available. If you want one; do not wait! Go here to get yours.

**If you are already subscribed to my monthly kits to go I have one of these set aside for you. Do not order another!

The second available kit includes these gorgeous cards! Stock up on your supply of masculine cards with this kit that requires NO stamping!

Save

It includes $18 in products including 1/2 pkg of Come Sail Away Memories & More cards pack and Memories & More cards and envelopes plus a pre-cut kit needed to complete your cards. It also includes one package of Basic Brads, two spools of twine (Navy & Navy/Sahara Sand) and a few Sail Away trinkets.

I have a limited supply of this kit on hand because many of the products are retiring. Many of these items are on sale right now on the Last Chance list here.

Purchase it here by May 17th.

Both of these kits will be mailed out at the end of this month, which gives you some wonderful crafting time.

Dressed to Impress meets Ornate Frames for a gorgeous hand made box!

May 13, 2020
These are the boxes I included in my Spring Retreat last month. I think they're gorgeous and was so happy with how they turned out!

Save

They're hand made from White and Lovely Lipstick card stock with fussy cut flowers and leaves from the Best Dressed designer series paper added to the top. The greeting is from the Dressed to Impress stamp set. The pretty die-cuts are from the Ornate Frames & Ornate Border dies which are now available again! See them here.

Here's a picture of the assembly process:

Here are the box dimensions:
- Top is 3 3/4" X 5 1/2" scored at 3/4" on all sides
- Bottom is 3 5/8" X 5 3/8" and scored at 3/4" on all sides.
Tips:
- Once you have the box pieces cut and scored you can use the Ornate Border dies to die-cut the pretty windows in the sides.
- Cut the White frame using the Ornate Frames dies. Stamp the greeting and add fussy cut leaves and flowers.
- Fill with chocolate!
