To Thank you

Hi friends,
My grandma asked me to make her a couple of thank you cards for a couple of people who sent her Sympathy cards for the passing of her brother. I decided to make some simple, easy to mass produce
cards & give her 4 instead of 2. Here are the cards I created for her:
very clean & simple.

I then decided I wanted to give them to her in a cute little box. (Presentation points, you know :) I luuuuuv the Mini Pizza Box by Jen Del Muro, because it's simple to make & it only uses ONE sheet of cardstock, but sadly it doesn't fit A2 sized cards. So I went to work & created one to hold A2 (standard size) cards. So here it is:

I kept it simple, to match the cards. But isn't it nicer to get cards in a lovely, coordinating little box? You like? If you do, then I'll share a tutorial with ya on how to create this "Used-to-be a Mini Pizza Box but now it's a Super Sized Pizza Box!" --- that's just the working title, don't worry! Hee! Hee! I would have posted today, but I'm wiped out :( So I hope to see you tomorrow! Don't forget to bring your trimmer, scoring tool, & ONE sheet of cardstock (Woo! Hoo!)

Thanks for peekin' in today :) I'm off to to catch some zzzzzz's now- Gotta go!
