DIY Christmas Card – Details

If you’re anything like me, you’ve got stacks of small designer paper scraps taking up space. Cut them to create rectangles to create this easy gift box stackable card layout.

Double-sided designer paper makes it easy to mix and match patterns with perfect color coordination. Don’t miss the tip in today’s video about adhering the ribbon. It’s a game changer and important to make sure it reaches the top box.
