Just a quick posting to show the box I made for the card in the post below. I'm really struggling not to over embellish these and have to keep telling myself it's a card box - not a card. I've promised that if a card needs a box to make it straight away and not leave it so that I'm overloaded with boxes that need making.


Right, whilst the day is still young I'm going to blitz my craft room, not that it will stay that way for very long but I'm tired of searching for every little thing I need, then I have to make two very special birthday cards.

A beautiful box or envelope is like icing on a cake --- and this is some delicious icing!! A perfect companion for the card and lovely keepsake storage as well.

Hello Heather!

I just adore this card, I've came here to your blog over and over just to look at it, it's totally amazing! It takes my breath away!
Just love your interpretation of the tutorial, it's so beautiful.
All those details you've created with your stamps and the beautiful flowers are perfect!

Love your box too! It's gorgeous! What a wedding gift!!!

I've made a box, following your awesome tutorial, and I loved it! They were so funny to make, and just the perfect envelope for a scrapbooking card with big flowers. :o)

Lots of hugs from Hanna
