My dear 90 yo friend since my childhood, Kay is moving to Anacordes, Washington to live with her DD and SIL and to be closer to other DD's and family. Kay has always enjoyed my cards, so I decided to give her a small and useful going away gift. A card box and thank you gift card set. Every card layout is different, but all coordinate so well by using all Ginger Blossom DP and the same color combo. I just love the results and I am sure Kay will appreciate every minute of love that went into her set. Enjoy as much as I enjoyed making...
The gift box was designed by StarLitStudio. Cindy calls this her six card and envelope gift box. I think it holds 4 embellished cards and envies beautifully.

This is a beautiful set, Nancy, and even more so in person. I totally love the box! Each one of the cards is very special in its own way and I know Kay will find them useful. I'm sure she loved your very pretty and heartfelt gift.

Nancy, my comment comes a couple years late... LOL Back when you posted this, I wasn't participating/commenting... I just used SCS for resourses/techniques. Your gift set is SOOO beautiful, and I am sure your friend Kay absolutely loved it. Your set inspired me to make several of these gift box sets over the years. It is such a great pattern. I have recently made another set, and linked your sample along with Cindy Lyle's directions in my description. Thanks for sharing your beautiful set!
