Stationery Box Set

I decided to get a head start on Mother's Day, and I made this for my mom. This is the Stationery Box from The Cutting Cafe', and I added five Monograms to the cover. I really LOVE the way this turned out!


Instead of using the Monograms individually, I used five of them to spell out "CARDS" for the top of the Stationery Box. For the box, I used the lid with the circle cut, and I adhered very thin plastic to the inside for the window. The ribbon just slips right off. Inside the box, there are four cards for my mom to use!


Here are the first two cards. They match the inside design of the box. I used two images from the All Occasion Circle Word Set 1 also from The Cutting Cafe'. They are matted on Nestabilities scallop circles.


The other two cards match the box design. On the first card, I used a circular sentiment from the All Occasion Circle Word Set 1. On the second card, I used a sentiment from the A - Z Is For Set. Both of these sets of printable stamps are available at The Cutting Cafe'. Be sure to stop by The Cutting Cafe' to check out all of the fantastic printable stamps AND cutting files that Regina creates! You will be amazed! My mom is going to LOVE this gift! I can't wait to give it to her!! You can click on all of the images to see them larger.

Thanks for stopping by!
