These are two different kinds of card keepers.

I started making cards about two years ago and it seems I’m always making cards at the last minute. My resolution for 2018 is to make birthday cards sooner.

I did much better with Christmas cards this year but I had them scattered all over my work area. Some had just the fronts done, some both the outside and inside, and others somewhere in between. I had a box (the one on the right) and cut it to use to store the finished cards. It held about 30 cards including envelopes. Since most of my Christmas cards had several layers, the box could hold more if not so thick.

I didn’t cover the boxes until this past week. I decided to make the first box my Birthday Card box and covered it in Cascading Fuchsia Paper from Heartfelt Creations. I made dividers for each month with a line for each day. I can make cards ahead and put them where I will use them.

The second box I made using a piece of thin cardboard SB.com uses to protect single sheets of paper when shipping. I covered this box mostly with scraps of Christmas paper and will use it as I make Christmas cards.

I got the idea from Pinterest. That person used cardstock to make her box but I couldn’t fathom a box made of cardstock being strong enough to sustain any use.
