The Front. I will say, I am not really happy with how my photos came out on this. I will have to re-think my photo studio area. Currently it's not a very good box since all of my boxes are covered in garage sale items. However, that sale will be boxed up soon and I will be able to free up a box that will allow me to make a more professional photo studio area. Hopefully after that I will be able to get some better photos. You can see by the two different flap, "yellows," that my light is not blending well.
Back to the actual project. I do like how this looks, it's simple but attractive. I really like the colors that Authentique used for this line. I am much of a bright yellow type, the subtler yellow with the gray looks nice though.
The Inside: The paper pack came with a sheet of old childhood poems. Some were a bit morbid, though they didn't include the, "ashes, ashes," on Ring Around the Rosies. I created this to sale so I figured I should go for a nicer poem. This kind of goes with the idea of a school photo card, though the kid is maybe dreaming about not being in school. It's an older poem that has been around for a long time, so it would go well with a parent or grandparent school photo.
Just some side photos. The card is fairly rigid and stands well on it's own. The only down side is that it's a little bulky. It doesn't fold down very flat. I am hoping more for something that will be displayed than stuffed in a drawer. So, the flatness probably matters less with it's intended purpose.
I hope you enjoyed this little card. If you have any comments or critiques please post them. If you like this idea please feel free to make your own, I would love to see them if you want to share.
