LARGE luxury C6 card box

Today I am sharing my specific measurements for a box I created to hold a set of Christmas cards I have made. I wanted a co-ordinating box and the measurements had to fit my needs. I got out my ruler and put my thinking cap on and ..voila.

So the box could be used for any reason but it holds 8 - 10 C6 size cards and envelopes with ease. By using the same Heart warming hugs paper as the cards we end up with a fantastic gift set of stunning cards.

Super simple to make but I do have a full step by step YouTube tutorial for you to follow and I will leave all measurements below to make it easy for you to recreate one for yourself.

Have fun creating xxx Amanda

Boxed journal gift set Stampin' Up! pressed Petals suite.

I love making journals so when I saw Stampin' Up! had a ready made journal for sale I had to have a look. A small sized Journal perfect to fit in your handbag and packed with fantastic pages for writing, loaded with pretty images and inspirational sayings. Perfect for a gift this Christmas or at any time of the year.

To make the journal even better I added some love... some crafty additions and created a custom sized and decorated gift box to place it in.

Everything I used is from the Pressed Petals suite in the 2019-2020 annual catalogue I will leave links below.

I have a full process video to share what I did to create both the box and the journal. Spot the blunder !! There generally is one in my tutorials but I like to keep it real. Crafted projects are made with love not perfection is my philosophy.

So grab a fresh cuppa, get comfy and enjoy the tutorial.

Huge hugs x Amanda
