The finished Mother's Day card. I saved this empty tea box cardboard package and finally figured out what to make with it, a Mother's Day card! It's sort of like a book and in the empty space, I decided to put a clear cover so I can write notes on the punch out hearts for my mom to read and slid in money as a partial gift!

I have another empty tea box but I don't know what I'll do with that yet. It's a great way to save these quality boxes because they could come handy.

Total Time: 30 minutes

Supplies:

cardboard box
cardstock paper
scissors
X-acto knife
glue stick
glue dots
stickers
heart paper puncher
pen

Steps:

For the inside flap, traced the flap on white card stock to size and glue down.

Decorate the flap and leave room to write your card.

Lace decoration places on either side of the box.

To cover up the brand, I used scrap pieces of key paper and taped it together.

I thought it would be neat to use sticker scrap (honeycomb shape) over the keys. Cut to size and glue down to cover brand.

Placing the honeycomb paper over the decorative paper.

To complete the front - I placed a heart sticker.

For the inside, I cut clear paper sheet protector to size. You can secure clear sheet protector with hot glue or use glue dots around (leaving the top not glued down)

Punch heart papers to write your messages or cut strips of paper to write your messages.

I had left over sticker honey comb so I put that on the screen protector and slid the money inside too.

Your card is now complete! I will write a handwritten message on the card shortly after.
