Wedding box card and gift

Now that I know how to make a box card, I decided to make one for my friend’s wedding we were attending.  Once I made it, I felt like it was missing something, so I kept adding more things…  It took me forever, but I am very happy with the result!

Then, I had to think about a gift…  Since they just bought a house and are moving into the house in a few weeks, I decided to give them something they can use every day.  Not for a special occasion.  So I got mugs and etched it with their initials and wedding date.  I LOVE  etching!!!  It is so much fun.  I don’t like things that are too busy, so I love the settleness of the etching.  I will be doing a lot more!

I had to make 7.5″x7.5″ envelope for the box card, so I looked for a box that can fit 2 mugs and a card, but there was not anything I liked, then I saw this wooden box at Michael’s on sale.  Everything fit perfectly!
