At my workshop last weekend, one of our projects was a "box card". So what's a box card?
Well, for one thing, it's hard to photograph 😁
But it's a cool fun-fold card that looks impressive standing on a mantle or desk, but still folds up to fit in a standard envelope.
Starting with a piece of Wild Wheat cardstock (retiring soon!), it was cut to 5-1/2" x 10-1/4", and scored at 4-1/4", 5-1/4", 7-1/4" and 8-1/4". Wow! Lots of score lines!
But when folded, it creates a box on the front than can collapse to one side. Pretty neat!
We used patterned paper from the Everyday Happiness pack, on OnLine Exclusive. Grown with Love is the stamp set/die set that we used to stamp the frame on the front and the thyme, using Lost Lagoon and Wild Wheat ink.
Although this looks like a complicated card, it was really very easy to put together. And everyone really liked it!
The 2023-25 In Colors are about to retire. Wild Wheat, Boho Blue, Moody Mauve, Pebbled Path and Copper Clay are going away and making room for 5 new In Colors. So if any of these are your favorites, be sure to pick up a supply now! Because once they are gone, they are gone for good!
