Business Card & Box



I made my own business cards!!!! I am so excited to have them made but not just made stamped as well!!! You can't have a business card and not using something Stampin' Up! on them.

I used a website that allows you to make your own cards for FREE and print them on your own printer!! I bought the vanilla business card paper from Staples where the paper is perforated, so you get 10 cards from one sheet. After printing, I stamped each card with the Tropical Party stamp set (now retired). And Voila!!!

Once my cards where complete I realized that I needed something to put them in, so nothing is better than a handmade box. I created a template using the dimensions of the cards which is 2 x 3 1/2 and came out with a 8 1/4" x 10" sheet of card stock to work with.

Supplies Used:
Stamp Set: Tropical Party (retired)
Card stock: Very Vanilla -size 8 1/4 x 10 scored & scrap; Melon Mambo -size 1/2 x 3 3/4 & scrap
