A co-worker of mine asked me to make some "Thank You" cards so she could give them to her mother for Mother's Day. Her mother is forever giving out thank you cards and it is a gift she is sure to appreciate. I found this video tutorial online that gave me a great idea to package this gift for her. I made the cutest box that holds 6 cards and 6 envelopes perfectly!!

Here is the end result:

Here is what the box looks like from an angle:


Once I competed the box, I decorated it with Daffodil Delight paper and designer series paper and topped it off with a sentiment from the Well Scripted stamp set. I love how it turned out and will definitely use this idea again.
