Embellish a Plain Box to hold your Handmade Cards

Giving handmade cards as a gift is a perfect gift for many occasions. But sometimes, you don’t know how to package the beautiful cards you made. Stampin’ Up! has created a new “mini paper pumpkin box” that is perfect for this exact reason. These boxes hold the Notecards & Envelope sized cards to make it even easier for you. Let me show you in this video how to embellish a plain box to hold your handmade cards. Below the video are the supplies I used to create these beautiful peony cards and the box.

I’m so in love with embellishing these mini paper pumpkin boxes. Curious why they are called mini paper pumpkin boxes? Paper Pumpkin is an all-inclusive monthly Stampin’ Up! crafting kit. Each kit comes in a larger box that opens the same way as these mini boxes. They are decorated to match the kit inside.
