A2 Card Box--My Idea of a 6 Pack

I've been working on gifts for employees at my paying job for Administrative Professionals Day at the end of April, and they're each going to get a different boxed set of greeting cards. Here is one of them. Each box will have 6 cards--My idea of a 6 pack :0)

Here is a look at all the cards in this set. All of these cards have zigzag machine stitching on them and all use Stampin Up Baja Breeze, Certainly Celery, and one or two patterns from the Wintergreen DSP from 2007's Fall/Winter line. All but two stamps are from Stampin Up as well.

This is the box all closed up and cards and envelopes tucked inside. Here is a look with the cards partially pulled out and the lid off--the cards fit entirely inside, and the only think you see when you open the lid is the edge of the envelopes sticking up. Card 1: Thanks to you Wolf (the wolf image is from Rubber Stampede)
Card 2: Dear Father deer
Card 3: A True Friend ( this sentiment is from Wordsworth)
Card 4: With Heartfelt Sympathy
Card 5: Happy Birthday
Card 6: Thinking of you
Here is another look at the entire set.

If you're interested in how I built the box, just leave a comment and I'll get you the instructions.


Thanks for looking and happy stamping!
