All Occation Cards for Christmas gifts!

I love to make cards!  I think it is a great idea to give a stack of cards as a Christmas gift.  The thought and time to produce these card says to the recipient they mean a lot to you.  Recently I made these cards:

I usually CASE cards which means 'copy and share everything' so I do try to give credit for the original design.

This was cased from Mary Fish - Blog Stampin Pretty

This was cased from Susan Itell - Blog Simple Stampin

This was cased from Cindy Schuster - Blog Nutmeg Creations

The following Three are cased from......

Tami White - Blog Stamp with Tami

I made all the gift boxes too!  They were cased from Catherine Pooler, she has a video that gives step by step directions for making boxes.  I used note card sizes (3 1/2" x 5").  I needed a box that was 2" high - so my measurements are:

Bottom: 9 1/2 x 8  Scored all around at 2"

Top:  9 9/16 x 8 1/16  Scored all around at 2 "

If you keep in mind that the top of the box needs to be 1/16th of an inch bigger than the bottom you should not have a problem.

I did manage to make the tags all by myself.  I used Stampin Up! Scallop Tag Topper (SU# 133324) and embossed the edges using VersaMark and silver and gold embossing powder.

Well that's it for this post.....Happy Stampin!   :-)
