Card in a box!

I've had this card in my stash for a while as I made it for a challenge a while back and I've wanted to send it to someone, but it obviously needed something more than an envelope. So because I had to get my Crafters Companion out of the cupboard (for the very first time!) to make an element for my frame (on the sneak peak post below- another clue!) I thought I would make a box for this card - and can I say making boxes is a breeze with the Crafters Companion! I think I've found my new fave thing to do!!!

I decorated the top of the box too.

Now the eagle eyed among you will have noticed the paperclips - they are not an element of my design but merely put in place to hold the card together whilst its in the box to stop it from springing open!!! (he he).  I dropped it round to my friends the other day, for her birthday today.

Hope you have a lovely weekend - enjoy this gorgeous weather (even if it is too hot)!
