One tradition I love from the holiday season is getting Christmas cards. I enjoy sending them and I enjoy receiving them but I always find it hard to just throw them all away! They're so pretty and it seems a shame that not everyone can see them and enjoy them and they just end up in the recycling.
A few years ago, my cousin over at The Spotted Sparrow posted a tutorial on how to make Christmas card gift boxes. That year, I immediately saved all my favorite Christmas cards I'd received to make them...and never got around to it. Two years later, I finally did it! This year my mom gave my cousins a lot of gift cards for the holidays so I made a special little box to put them in. I started off with this card:
I made the boxes and they ended up being the perfect size for a gift card! I ended up lining the cards with construction paper so that the receivers wouldn't see the warm holiday wishes I'd received from other people:
