Gift box ideas??

[lindalee]

My friend wants to give a packet of 40 assorted cards to her MIL for Christmas. That's a lot of paper!! Does anyone have any suggestions for a container we can put them in that would look cute but not cost an arm and a leg? I would prefer not to use the gable boxes.

Why not get a paper mache treasure chest from a craft store, and decorate it? Or. . .

There is one in the ABC gallery - Here's a link:
Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
She posted a link to the directions to make your own rather than buy a pre-made one.

That would be an awesome presentation for your wonderful gift!

Current has some cute card boxes with dividers for cards. The price is around $10 bucks last time I ordered one. They're usually floral print. I did that for my MIL a few years ago for xmas with cards in each section...plus a coupon for a year's refills. She lOVED it!
