Hello everyone and hello Friday (how I have missed you Friday!) I am sorry that there was no Thursday post but I am in the middle of a sales meeting and I simply ran out of time for everything I had planned and the job that pays the bills comes first--even though I wish I could make my living crafting!!
So this week I have a video of how to make a gift box for your A2 cards--it is quick and easy and you can embellish it a million ways to Tuesday!
Don't forget to leave comments--and since I was not able to post yesterday--today's comment count as double!!! There is the $25 in Close to My Heart product (you get to pick) for this weeks give away and of course the Cricut Imagine that will be given away on March 5. Only one more week to get all you entries in.
See you back here on Monday--make it a great one

Thanks so much for that tutorial...I'm definitely gonna try to make some cute boxes! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat Box....your video is awesome...you are a great teacher....I loved too how the card matched your box top...very clever....no need to apologize for no featured project Thursday...just know you were missed. Thanks for the chance at your most generous blog candy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the clear and concise tutorial. Very easy to follow.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, Bryan! Love the way you did the video-very clear and concise instructions. The box is so pretty, and versatile. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration that you provide. The prizes are just icing on the cake! (and who doesn't love icing?) BethAnn M.

Great box for holding a set of note cards or greeting cards that you've made to give as a gift! You could make the box coordinate with the cards!
ReplyDeleteI would've never looked at the Preserves cart for that label you used! I really need to look at my cart handbooks carefully and use them more often! Maybe you could do a week-long series on various carts ~ devote a week of projects to a specific cart using cuts that often get overlooked!
Thanks for the box idea!
Thans for sharing Bryan, I love making boxes of different sizes and shapes. Cant wait to see what you have instore for us next Friday.
ReplyDeleteLove the box. Don't we all wish we could support ourselves with our crafts. Love your work.

Oh MY,Love the simpleness of it!! Who knew!
ReplyDeleteThis is such great information, Bryan! I made a box like this at a Stampin' Up class but didn't have the measurements... Now I do! These boxes (full of handmade cards) make such wonderful gifts.
ReplyDelete(One suggestion... Please change the frame size when you embed your videos so we can see the entire picture. I was able to hunt you down on YouTube though (link not available on the video due to frame size) and am now subscribed to you there as well. Thanks!)
Thanks Bryan. I really enjoyed it, and looking for to trying it.
