I got the idea for this set from another fabulous stamper but I cannot find my original picture. As soon as I find it I will give the proper credit to the person that inspired me.
This is a boxed card gift set I created for my Sister and one for my son's teacher. I made 2 of each color so they would each have 10 cards.
Then I created the box to hold them. So sorry I forgot to write down the dimensions but all you need to do is hold your 10 cards and envelopes together and measure the thickness. The boxes are 2 pieces. I used 12x12 cardstock and made score lines for the sides, top and bottom. Then repeated the process for the back piece adding 4 inches so the top would fold over. I know this probably doesn't make sense and I'm sorry. I will try to recreate them and get all the dimensions for you later.
The cards are pretty simple but have such an impact with the pretty, bright colors and their initials on each.
The box was made using the awesome SU! Simply Scored Scoring Tool. It really makes life easy when you have one of these.
The name plates were cut with the Sizzlits Labels Collection Framelits in 3 layers of the 6.
The ribbon is our fantastic 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon in Certainly Celery and Crumb Cake.
I used the Polka Dot Parade Designer Series Paper and Crumb Cake Cardstock for the base. Then used Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, and Marina Mist cardstock for the monogram labels layered on Soft Suede cardstock.
I also stamped the background in Soft Suede (stamped off once) using the Mixed Bunch stamp set.
So, what do you think? Do you know someone that would love to receive this as a gift?
