Note card boxes

These hold 4 note cards and envelopes.  Each one uses 1 sheet of Designer paper-- with no waste

My friend Linda brought one over to show me and I went to town making 10 for my oldest sons teachers.  He loves to give gifts almost as much as i do.

I have some basic specs, but not detailed.  Its a cased project too, but I don't know the original artist.


DSP 7.5 x 12 score at 1-7/8 down each long side.

turn and score at 5-5/8 then at 6 7/8

fold the short score line up to the long score line to make the box.  you can see how to do the fold HERE on a smaller scale (love this project too)

the left over DSP- cut to 2.25 x 5 and 3.5 x 4.5.  use this to decorate your note cards!  FUN!

Quick picture shot with my phone was the best I could do in crunch time!!!

Fiji Incentive trip: The Pillow gifts!

One of the highlights of the incentive trips are the PILLOW GIFTS!!!

I have to admit that I did "borrow" a few pictures from a few of my demo friends as I ripped into MOST of my pillow gifts before taking pictures!  Thanks to Denise Donald, Kay Kalthof and Linda Heller for helping me with this post!

When we walked into the room, this was in front of the bed:


and this message from Shelli was on the bed!


A great tote for carrying towels on excursions!


 a box full of NEW PRODUCT (sorry can't show you yet)


a hat for me and a backpack for him


 exclusive Fiji Lotion and Sugar Scrub.  NICE!!!


Can you believe there were MORE gifts??  Yes!!!  There were poolside gifts, bean bag toss gifts, gifts from general session, gifts at the final dinner.  

one word: SPOILED!!!

I loved every minute of this trip!  So looking forward to the Western Caribbean cruise next year!
