Kleenex Box Projects

These projects were made using the largest Kleenex box and the small one. The recipe for the boxes are again from GinaK's StampTV site. The papers and ribbon used are from Stampin Up and I also used Nestibilities. I have about 4 more of the small boxes and I intend to label them with different themes such as Get Well, Thanks, etc. They are really easy to make and brighten up the surroundings and provide a place to keep all of those little pieces of paper like receipts and quick notes that I seem to scribble down after browsing online for ideas.

More Projects...More Cards

It's a dreary Monday here today. It's trying to rain. Really miss the sunshine. It makes a difference in my mood. Thought I would post some more pictures of projects and cards I have completed.



These gift card holders were really simple to make. I made a bunch at Christmas and I made one in blue for a December birthday. If you'd like to have the details on how to make, see GinaK's StampTV site and look on the right side and you will see a list for many projects including this one.
