Card Box

This is a new product from CTMH, I made this particular box for Nanny's 90th Birthday. I am going to put Christmas cards in here for her to mail out this holiday season.


Step 1-Card Box ($4.95- Z1647) you can leave white, color with ink or do like I did and mix Ink Re-inker (Vineyard Berry) in Create a Shade Pearl Paint ($2.95 - Z1039). It dried really fast.

Step 2- While your box is drying cut your paper to cover the box. You'll need to cut the paper just a tad smaller so the box shows underneth. Here are the box diminshions: The sides measure 4 1/2" x 2 3/8" cut 2
Top & Bottom 6 1/2 x4 1/2" cut 2 if you want to decorate the inside you'll need to cut one for the lid & then the bottom. Back 6 1/2 x 2 1/4 cut 2
Front Flap 6 1/2 x1 1/8" cut 1



Step 3- adhere your paper to your box & embellish accordingly. I used the Accent Collection Peweter ($4.95 - Z1487), Color Ready Alphabets ($3.95 - X5749) and Heirloom Assortment ($5.95 - Z1635) and Opaques Adhesive Gems Mocha ($2.95 Z1336).

Within an hour I had created a completed gift
