I love to give the gift of hand stamped cards. I also love to create a beautiful box to give them in! Today I have a project that will just knock your socks off. It’s such a pretty way to give the gift of love with a fold in the middle. I am excited to share the Facebook Live Rewind – Greeting Card Gift Box.
I created this project with about 200 of you last week LIVE on Facebook. Today I will be sharing the “edited” version of that live event. I know that Facebook Live isn’t everyone’s cup of tea so this video will showcase just the stamping and how to create the box. If you would rather see the video in its entirety, CLICK HERE to view it on Facebook.
Talk about a gorgeous way to give the gift of hand stamped cards!
The focal image on the front cover? This can be ANYTHING! It’s a standard A2 card on the front. 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. Pick your favorite card to go on the front.
I hope you enjoy the video! Grab yourself a coffee, tea, or soda and check it out!

Use the DECEMBER HOST CODE X3AMDUHN on your order of $30* or more and I will include a Holiday Treat in your thank you card! It’s kinda like getting something fun from Santa only from me and all for using that Host Code. What a sweet deal!
Remember, if your order is over $150.00*, DON’T use the Host Code and earn Stampin’ Rewards (Rewards start at $15) plus you’ll also receive the free gift from me! See? I know you love free!
