I thought you might like to see some of my card boxes. Here is a set of cards using the Incredible
Like You project kit. This kit is gorgeous and the card have a wow factor with
embellishments and a hint of glimmer.

The lid is cut at 6 x 7 1/2 and scored at 5/8 on all 4
sides.
The base is cut at 7 x 8 1/2 (take off a smidge on 2
connecting sides so it’s a teeny bit smaller than the lid for a tight
fit). Score the base at 1 1/8 on all 4
sides
What do you think?
What should I price it at? I’d love some ideas… a box of 4 cards,
envelopes in pretty packaging, with 100% of the price going to our community
center? $15? If you have a minute I’d
love your thoughts in the comment section or to my email MaryKate@MaryKateScott.com
Then I created these bags, I call them the “Audrey” don’t
they look like a bag Audrey Hepburn would carry in Breakfast at Tiffany’s?? LOL

Essentially you build a box (with an open
top), and add the handbag side pieces and the top (the glimmer) on the
sides. I secure mine with magnets that I
get at Amazon. And cover the magnets with a piece of black cardstock (as the
magnets are strong and it looks prettier).
The gems are just for show, they don’t do anything. If you’d like a tutorial just let me know by
comment or email. They are a bit time consuming but they are fun and I think
they’ll be popular – I’ll report back after the craft fair!
Tomorrow I’ll show you a few more boxes I made with the
Precious Parcel Kit

I love the purse idea. Yes, yes, I want to make these too, if you'll share the instructions. Thanks, MaryKate/
