Greeting Card Box Gift Idea

For Christmas, each year, I send my mother a photo calendar {I usually create it at Costco} with all her grandchildren's photo's & birthdays.

Last year I made this greeting card photo box for her as well. 

I thought it was a fun gift idea & wanted to share it with you, my friends.

This would make a great Christmas or Birthday gift.

The box is actually a plain CD box that I dressed up with scrapbook paper & a few embellishments.  I used Modge Podge {Love that Stuff}  to glue & seal it.

A closer view of the cover of the box.   {I did this box before I owned my Cricut, so I actually cut everything by hand}

This is inside the box cover & it's just a printout of the cards that were inside the box.  I sealed it with Modge Podge too.

Of course, it has to be organized - so I created some labels.

These are some of the homemade cards that were in the box.   There were 43 total {It took quite a while to make all the cards, but it was super fun & super addicting.} I put each card into it's own plastic card sleeve {purchased at Craft Warehouse} so they wouldn't get ruined. Some of these photo's are taken with the plastic sleeves on, which would explain the glare on some and not others. 

Be Inspired!  Make a Card! Or Better Yet, Make a Card Box!  :)
