Thank you. So well explain! From Canada 😊

[@MixedUpCraft]

Glad it was helpful😊

[@yolandebergeron8887]

MERCI
Your vidéo is very easy to follow . I have printed the tutorial from your blog. I often make my cards too thick in an envelope. These envelope boxes are my savior.
THANK YOU

Thanks for this tutorial. Ive been hunting for an envelope video for my cards.

[@sandrasimpey1712]

Hi Sam, I'm new to card crafting. I watched your tutorial of the garden card the other day (you were very kind to show my mum the end result - I'm so grateful for that). Having now completed 2 wedding anniversary cards, 1 for my mum and dad - 56 years at the end of this month and 1 for my sister and her husband - 35 years on 1st February, I needed a suitable envelope. Thank you SO much for this tutorial, I've made my 1st top opening 7 x 5 envelope. I'm really chuffed at how it has turned out, wishing I had used coloured card instead of white, but, we live and we learn. I will make the box envelope next.

[@roselinprimrose1637]

The clarification on this is fabulous thank you for helping

[@carolewheeler3928]

ty for taking the time to do this tutorial, Sam . Much appreciated. xx

[@patriciajohnstone4679]

I cannot tell you how much I appreciated this tutorial!! I have an envelope punch board and dies up the wazoo and I couldn’t make an envelope for this card until I found your video! Thank you thank you thank you!!

[@Marie-qx4hz]

Absolutely fantastic so easy to follow - where have you been all my crafting days lol.

[@krystyneharris]

Sam, you are truly an extremely generous person, both with your knowledge and your time. You have shown us so many times to make envelopes, boxes, etc, etc. etc., and once again you have taken the time to show us two different style boxes and in two different sizes, particularly as you have just finished a series. I find this so, so generous and it is any wonder that you are my go-to person. Thank you once again. With my kindest regards, Krystyne

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you so much Krystyne for your very kind comment 😀

[@MarilynHaskell]

Thank you for this tutorial. I created 5 x 7 birthday card that is 3-Dimensional layered and is too thick for an envelope. I followed your directions and made a box for it. Your instructions were easy to understand and do. My box for the card turned out perfect! Thank you again.

[@lillianmartinez1593]

OMG!! Thank you so much!!! This is the video tutorial that we all have been waiting for!! So many crafters make 3D cards and no way to send them!! You are the best!!! Hello from the other side of the pond, Miami Florida 🌴😎💕

[@deniseburmester2304]

Thank you!!. I had saved the other videos with the boxes. Really appreciate the separate video. You are the best!

[@BarlowSmith]

[@maryblackhursthill6249]

Utterly brilliant! Thank you so much. That shaving off a fraction... 🤦‍♀️. WHY did I never think of that!!! I love all your card videos and turning them into my own reality. Thank you SO much.

[@lynnallison3642]

[@carolekinsey7835]

Your tidy crafter Sam. Filed and ready to use when needed.
Nice one. Thanks. 😊

Very handy to have the box measurements and how-to at your fingertips, Sam ! Thankyou for sharing.

[@carolynfisher8918]

These are a wonderful edition to all your cards that will not fit in a regular envelope. Thank you. You always explain your projects so very well. I will now go to Design Space and make several box envelopes. Your tutorials are always so easy to follow.

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you so much!

[@janinelucas1262]

thank you Sam this will make a great reference like you said for you and us ,your a star making things so simple and easy to follow kind regards Janine

[@deborahclark6186]

Thank you Sam. I always have a hard time finding the right measurements for the right card sometimes. Even at my age I for get or don't remember. Let me say I had the hardest time with measurements in school, I just couldn't understand the ruler. But now that I started watching you and some others how to read the ruler you make it so much easier. I'm a card maker and Quilt maker and I love it. I never gave up. So again Thank you so much.

[@maplelassuk]

I love this tutorial! A year after watching, and having made so many of the box 1,I finally made box 2 Flip top in a 6 x 6!! So neat. This is going to my grandson, who is studying Design Engineering, and been making folds!! His card is your corner easel, and I know he will love them. Thanks again Sam xx

[@jeanneschmidt491]

So nice of you to take the time to make this great tutorial! It is very helpful and I'm sure we will all go to it often. Thank you!

[@carolterrey3083]

Thank you Sam. Great tutorial

[@jillburch7691]

OMG you are a genius. I have struggled for so long trying to get the lid to a box to be just a hair bigger for a good fit. Never in a million years would I have thought to adjust the base in such a way. Seriously GENIUS!

[@LuzGarcia-ss2tf]

Wow, God bless you, Ty so much for sharing, this tutorial is a game changer, was looking for it and here you are, love it.❤😂🎉

[@lindanagle3796]

You know Sam I always waste alot of paper trying to get the lid to be nice and snug. Now that I watch this I saved this video for reference so they come out perfect. Thanks for sharing. I will be getting busy today making these. ❤

[@lorettabryant2316]

Thank you so much!...just made a card from my new Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine, Issue #196 and was trying to figure out measurements for it because I added roses and ribbon, which added dimension of course...you are a lifesaver...thanks so much! Have a blessed day!
