So here is my latest card design a commissioned piece for my friend to give her partner this valentines, I made this one a special box too, I used cricut SB cart with design studio for the border cutout & the tag from TBBM & the text on tag is from WC , I used the roller stamp for the insert in the box with plain black ink, but on the front of the card I used it on black card with clear embossing which gave the card a really luxurious feel a very inexpensive way of sprucing up plain paper. The text is computer generated, the inserts for the card are 2 A4 sheets of pearlised paper these are folded then I punched holes through both bits & set some eyelets in then threaded red satin ribbon through to give a really sexy feel to the card, the box is made to measure the size of card is approx 21x20cm the card for the box is cut @26x27cm then scored 1" all the way round, for the lid you score just a few mm less than 1" otherwise it will be too tight.
