This project has been a labor of love and I've had bunches of fun creating it! To make this stationery gift set, I followed a video tutorial by May May Made It. I used two product groups to create mine so that the images and colors would coordinate. The mini slimline cards are new to me and they are kinda cool y'all! I made mine a bit larger than May May did hers. I cut the cards 6-1/2" x 6-1/4" then scored at 3-1/4" which makes a 3-1/4" x 6-1/4" card. Needless to say, Stampin' Up! doesn't sell an envelope for that size card, but you can find them on Amazon.
My Bible Study Christmas Party we always have a Chinese Gift Exchange and this will be my gift this year. There are many different things you can include in the pockets of the tote. I chose a few different things than May May included in hers, and that's the cool thing... there are so many possibilities!
In my Stationery Tote I chose to include the following:
- Two different Post It Pad booklets
- Postage
- Bookmarks
- A calendar
- A collection of stamped sentiments with Tear and Tape on the back for easy attachment to the small slimline cards
- Six slimline cards and envelopes
- Eight A2 cards and envelopes
- A mini legal pad cover with pen and pocket
- Perpetual Birthday Calendar
