So I thought I would do a throwback piece using a retired stamp set. I didn’t go too far back since this just retired in June but I still love it. This was my sister’s birthday present and she is a pink fanatic. The box opens up like a book to reveal two inside pockets, one for cards and one for envelops. Decorated with the retired En Francais and retired pink ribbon along with Everything Eleanor and Petite Petals.

I used a masking technique to make some of these cards and used my embossing folder as a stamp on the third. I also used the retired sentiments from Loving Thoughts. These are note card sized and you can get them in packs from the Stampin’ Up! store. I purposely left them as single layers and generic so they can be used for anything. She got two of each design. The note card packs are such a great item for making small quick cards for any occasion.
