Card Set

It's a joy to make cards for friends who appreciate them. So thought I would make up a card set as part of my Christmas gift to a dear friend. When I do this kind of thing, I make cards in the style and colours of the recipient.

I made a pizza box style box.


This is a close up of the top of the box.

I made 6 cards of the same design, but changing the colours and the embossing folder used for the background. 


Here are the six cards ...






















My entry for ...

... The Flower Challenge : Anything but a card I'm using the box for this entry.

    Absolutely beautiful cards, those flowers are incredibly lovely and so delicate, I too wonder how you managed to attach them to the card front.
    The box is lovely too, this would make a very beautiful and thoughtful gift.
    Thank you for sharing with us at THE FLOWER CHALLENGE, hope you play again soon.
    Hugs,
