This is for today's technique challenge to make a trio of 3x3 cards with a matching box and envelopes. I had made this little holder at our monthly stamp club, and was stumped what to put in it...so the little cards fit in this perfectly. This is a tiny grocery sack with a card front adhered to the front and then the word window punch at the top with the stitched ribbon tied through. My friend, Lori, recently gave me these adorable brads with checks and polka dots, so they were used for the flower centers. There were white dots added with the signo gel pen to the tiny hearts, and the paper is from the SU designer series paper pack. This made a cute little set, so thanks for the challenge!!
This will be used as a thank you gift to my friend who helped me with DD's graduation last weekend...hope she likes it! Thanks for looking!!
Edit to Add: I don't know how four cards makes a trio, but it sounded better than a Quadruple of Hearts!!

love it! And I love the grocery sack idea. I have a ton of those left over from a birthday party where we used them to hold favors for the kids. I've been wondering what to do with them. Now I know. Thanks.
