While I love the craft of stamping and coming up with my own original designs, sometimes it's nice to pull out a kit and make something with pieces that are already cut and ready and I don't have to think about it! I used the "On Its Way" Simply Sent Kit to make up this birthday card. I only added small pieces of Whisper White and Tangerine Tango cardstock.

Remember the Open Top Boxes I posted last year? (See them here and here.) I knew as soon as I saw the Happy Hello Simply Sent Card Kit in the Sale-a-bration brochure that it would be perfect! Don't you agree?
The Happy Hello Card Kit is obviously meant to make cards, but I love that you can make something else with just a few extra score lines!
Watch my video tutorial to learn how to make this box from the Simply Sent Card Kit. You can use the same measurements on another card kit or even just a 1/2 sheet of cardstock (8-1/2" x 5-1/2").
Prefer a print tutorial? Check out the PDF tutorial I posted last fall. The scoring measurements are the same as this project, so you can print it out and refer back to it later.
Ready for a Door Prize!? I love card kits. They are easy and you do just enough to make it handmade. I call them the Jiffy Cake Mixes of Card-Making! To be entered in the door prize drawing for two card kits, leave me a comment on this post and tell me how often you stamp! Is it every day? Every week? Once a month? I will draw one winner for the Day 6 Door Prize at the end of the week. (Sorry, this
drawing is open to U.S. residents only!) Good luck!
This idea was shared at Leadership Conference and I just had to CASE it for my Girly Girl Card Class. You can get the Everyday Elegance Card Kit FREE when you purchase $50 or more before March 31. Click here for details. Click here to see more projects using the Everyday Elegance Card Kit.
I wanted to use this card kit to make something other than a card. I was inspired by a picture of a box that was demonstrated at Convention using a different kit, but I just couldn't figure it out from the photos. So I started from scratch and made up my own box! Don't worry, you won't have to figure it out on your own! I created a tutorial with the measurements so you'll know exactly where to score and cut if you want to make this box at home.
I used the Everyday Elegance Simply Sent Kit for this box. The kit comes with both Cherry Cobbler and Baja Breeze cards. Click here to see the Baja Breeze card I posted yesterday. I love how simple and elegant these cards can be!
I love the Simply Sent Card Kits. They are perfect for a quick card. You can dress them up a little with some extra stamping or embellishments, or you can just leave it clean and simple. And this month, when you purchase two Simply Sent Card Kits, you'll get a coordinating stamp set for free! Click here to view this special in my Online Store.
This card was made with the Everyday Elegance Simply Sent Kit. It includes Cherry Cobbler and Baja Breeze printed cards and laser cute borders. There are self-adhesive labels for your greeting.
