I’ll walk you through all of the steps to build this card, but I…

Last week I shared some little boxes I made for an all-day working session I hosted for my team at work using the Tricks & Treats Dies (you can see that post here). I tucked little chocolates inside the boxes and set them around the room to greet my team members when they came into the room. They aren’t stampers (they are accountants), so it was easy to impress them. 🙂 The night before the…
