Over the last few posts I've shared some small thank you cards and matching gift box to package them in. As promised, here is a quick tutorial for making the "pizza style" gift box. The thank you cards were small square cards, 4" x 4" and the envelopes sized just a...
Today I've got a boxed gift set of cards to share. A mini pizza style box with four thank you cards and envelopes. I've already shared these two cards with you. And I made another duo in Real Red, switching the reds and blues round within the images as well as for the...
