Hello, Crafters.
Earlier this morning, I posted my video showing how to make a Book Box.
I’ve put a birthday greeting on the front so it can be used as a combined birthday card and gift box.
If I was to give this to someone as such, I’d decorate a gift bag to put the card box in.
If I had to post it, I’d put it in a postal box.
The size of the box is suitable to hold five or six A6 (A2) greeting cards and envelopes which would make a super gift.
When the cards have been used, the recipient has a nice box they can use for whatever.
When I made the video, I’d forgotten that our new 12″ x 12″ cardstock comes in each colour family, but just three of the colours.
I have suggested that Soft Sky can be used and have also suggested a Soft Sky Ribbon that will be ideal to go with it.

You do make the most beautiful cards and boxes. I am always impressed
You're very kind. Many thanks, Deb. ☺ Happy crafting. JanB.
What an exquisite gift box, Jan! Just such a beautiful gift to present someone special with. I am very much wanting to try this one myself. Love the "Berry Burst" nails today too! Thank you again and always for such wonderfully instructional videos!!
Hi, Geraldine. I was pleased how this project worked. It was so easy and the result is fabulous. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.
Oh my goodness, this book/box is stunning! I love watching you, you work with such precision, I'm so impressed each and every time! Yes, I agree with you, Stampin' Up have some beautiful DSP in this new catalogue. Definitely going off now to make this one! By the way, loved hearing the birds in the background, so peaceful!
Hi, SueB. I'm pleased you like this project. I think it's one of those that has lots of possibilies! The evening birdsong is superb. ☺ Happy crafting, JanB.
That is a truly beautiful box and I would love to make it but I don’t see any instructions or measurements.
Hi, Myrtle. I hope you’ve seen my email with the YouTube link to my video for this project? xx
This is a lovely presentation. I will be making many of these for Christmas exchanges. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. I wish I had found your site long ago. I appreciate how much care you take in creating your projects.
Many thanks, Judy. Better late than never! 😉 xx
