All four stationary boxes have different 3" x 3" cards in them. The first picture shows the cards I made using the Slit Punch. This was a fabulous idea offered by Andrea Walford on her Demo To Demo site. The second photo shows one of all 4 different sets. After a while they all started to look a like and I just needed to get them done!!! The third photo shows one of the gift tags. They all have different colors of cardstock and a different piece of the Bella Rose paper. I left them blank so they could be stamped with a sentiment of their choice, depending on what occasion they use them for.
Finally, the picture of the Birthday Book. I didn't want to make an address book like Jackie Topa did with her original instructions, so I had my fantastic little man, Benjamin create a monthly Birthday Book. I ran the pages on regular printer paper and cut them to size. I may be willing to share those pages if you leave a nice comment. E-mail me at yasou@cableone.net if you want a copy. Edited to add: If you have received the calender pages but can't open them, let me know. We have a newer version of Word (so my comperter guys tell me anyway) and they've fixed it so all computers can read it now. Also, a wonderful lady e-mailed me with a very complimentary note...and I accidently deleted it without sending her the calender pages. PLEASE write back if you are the one who hasn't received them, so sorry!!
I attached the book to the box with 2 sticky Velcro circles so it can be removed and reattached easily.
Hope you enjoyed the pictures of the stationary boxes! I'll be back Sunday afternoon with all kinds of new photos, the NEW catalog and tons of inspiration to share.
I am loving this box! Thanks for sharing it with us!

ReplyDeleteLove your design!! I did a birthday calendar as well, but yours is so much better. All I did was print the lines on the computer and hand wrote the months and days. I would love to have your copy of the calendar! Thanks in advance!
