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.

First up is a beautiful card made by Jacki featuring the Sending Smiles set seen here and the Sending dies seen here

Save

I always love to see out of the box colors for the Autumn season. She used Blackberry Bliss, Mossy Meadow and Pumpkin Pie with Crushed Curry. The background designer paper is the Inked Botanicals from the Annual catalog.

What a gorgeous bouquet of flowers she created.

Next is Marla's card – she also used the Inked Botanicals designer paper. She also used the Cottage Wreaths stamp set seen here on her main layer.

Save

The colors include Crushed Curry, Lost Lagoon and Calypso Coral – all featured in her designer paper.

Measurements:
- Vanilla card base 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 2 3/4" X 3 3/4" for stamped front panel

Ginny made this last card using the Natural Prints set and Nature's Prints dies seen on page 24 of the annual catalog.

She cased this card from Mitusu Crafts; she inked her clear blocks directly in our classic inks and stamped directly onto her card stock. She heat embossed the 'splotches' using Copper embossing powder.

There are so many awesome details here – the colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock and Pebbled Path. I love the greeting shape – cut by hand I believe.

September 21, 2023
We held our monthly Team swap last weekend and I'm excite to share these amazing swap cards with you.

She added a strip of the new Them Bones designer paper seen here to her Cajun Craze textured layer (Exposed Brick) and created the gorgeous blended background circles for her skeletons. I believe she used Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Starry Sky and blending brushes.

Her skeletons were heat embossed with White powder on Black cardstock, then die-cut with the Bag of Bones dies. The bats on the yellow moon are die-cuts from this same bundle.

This bundle was out of stock for a bit but it's back now! See it here.

It's a spanner card! She jazzed up the inside layers too.

Lastly today is a sweet card by Candace who featured the Pick of the Patch bundle seen here:

I love her out of the box color choices of Pretty Peacock, Blackberry Bliss and Pumpkin Pie. She used the new Deckled Circle dies for the background of her punched pumpkins. Her ribbon is new as well – a Vanilla and Black gingham seen here.

The photo barely shows off the pretty and new Distressed Tile embossing folder. It's a new favorite for many!

Two Neat Cheerful Daisy Fun Fold cards by Barb

September 19, 2023
Barb was our Artist of the Month for my Flowerbug's team in August and made this super neat card with the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper and the Cheerful Daisy bundle seen here.

Save

It uses a long piece of the designer paper, scored and folded to create most of the card. She cased the idea from Patty Bennett.

She added two layers of die-cut daisies to the folds using layered circles as a base for them.

Measurements:

Start out with a 5 1/4" X 12" piece of designer paper and score it at 2", 4" and 6". Adhere the paper together on the score lines. Then add to a full card base measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". Now embellish with your die-cuts or punches, layering them in different heights.

Save

The inside has a die-cut from the Scalloped Contours dies.

Next is a beautiful Double-Decker fun fold card featuring Blueberry Bushel and White.

Save

I made a card like this on a recent video; see it here.

This card looks a bit intimidating – at least it did to me – until I tried one. It's actually quite easy.

Save

Measurements:
- Card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
- White front 2 1/2" X 3 1/2", die-cut scalloped rectangle 3 1/8" X 4 3/8" finished, front texture 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
- White box for double-decker 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" score every 3/4" and form into a box
- Blueberry Bushel 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"
- DSP 4" X 5 1/4"
