I hope you are having a good one? Day that is!!
Over at the Craft Barn we have been making mini projects and my team mates have made some beautiful examples, if you have a minute check it out :0)
Here is my mini offering
A set of small cards in a box, luckily I had some envelopes to start but it's fairly easy to make them yourself. I took the envelopes as a starter for the size of the cards.
Using an A4 card I scored and folded to make a box to fit, The cards measure 10.5 cm x 6cm, so really quite small, good for tiny thankyou's or small invites for coffee perhaps.
I stamped, inked and scored the piece of stampbord on the outside of the box. I used the peice of stampbord to echo the design on the cards, by cutting a template the same size to ink and stamp through.
Here is my hand under the box, I hope that gives and idea how small these are.
Thank you for dropping in, I hope you like my cards! Have fun, Gay x
