Free As a Bird Boxed Note Card Set - a Case & Catalogue Sneak Peak

Have I mentioned that I like the Bird Bundle in the new annual catalogue?  Maybe once or twice??

I saw this boxed note card set on Pinterest and loved it so much I cased it. Unfortunately I cannot find the original author to give her credit, so if anyone recognizes her work please let me know.



The notecards are 4 by 8" Whisper White scored at 4 to form 4 by 4" note cards.  If you use a 12 by 12" sheet of Whisper White you can cut all four from 1 piece - with a little bit left over.  Each card front is matted with Petal Pink card stock followed  by Free as a Bird DSP (bird cages)
A 2" circle punch used to punch birds directly from the DSP, is matted with a stitched Petal Pink larger circle.  This is adhered to the DSP using dimensionals.

Each note card has a different sentiment on the front.





Envelopes for the note cards were made using the Envelope punch board.  This wonderful tool is retiring.

The envelope punch board was also used to make the box, which was finished in a similar manner to the cards. In addition two clusters of flowers were cut from the DSP and added to the lid, and a bow made of 5/8" organdy Petal Pink/white ribbon was added over the image.  I also added a Free as a Bird trinket.

Stamp:  Free as a Bird
Ink:  Soft Suede
Papers:  Whisper White, Petal Pink, Free as a Bird DSP
Accessories:  Envelope punch board, 2" circle punch, Stitched Circle Framelit, Free as a Bird trinket, 5/8" Pink and White Organdy ribbon, dimensionals
