Business Card Holder

I wanted to make something special for a friend at work. She's always giving away her jewelry that she makes or taking photographs and giving them away. She's such a delight! Well, my last day was Sunday, so I wanted to give her something.

I had seen a business card holder that Nicole made posted on the Cricut Message Board. I actually found the old posting and got directions off her blog - www.undertheinkfluence.com, in the month of June, 2009. You can click on the title above to get to her directions.

I did alter her pattern a little bit. I made the box holder using Accent Essentials and cut the figure at 4 1/2" instead of her suggested 5". I also cut a little more off for the base.

Anyway, it was fun and I enjoyed the process. I wanted to add a lot of bling with crystals or glitter (because my friend is a blingy gal), but I didn't have the right paper to go with that. Maybe I should go shopping!!!
