In colour festival day 3 of 7 mini note cards and box

Todays tutorial is for a really quick and easy mini box which holds four to six cute mini notecards. This idea is great as a teacher appreciation gift, craft fetes, hostess gifts and swaps there really are countless reason to make, and uses for this cute design.

Today I chose to use all the new in colours as part of my seven day back to back series .... but you can change it up and use whatever paper you have, just ensure the note cards match the box for a better finish and a well co-ordinated look. The process is so simple once you do one you can make an
endless supply.

I used the new Label me pretty stamp and punch bundle...I love matching sets it just makes creating so much easier and quicker as all the guess work just disappears. I used small amounts of the new in colour dsp and matching card stock... these all match the inks perfectly and is one of the unique selling points of Stampin' Up! all their dyes match again taking the guess work and the stress away.

All my measurements are listed below and there is a step by step youtube tutorial for you to follow.

Get your creative juices flowing and run up a batch of these in no time at all. I hope you have fun ...
