Happy Birthday, Mom..you are so special!

My mom will be 83 this year..her birthday is this month.  She is super special...and i was so excited to give this tutorial a try...It's a card box..it folds in half..it's just awesome.. i hope she will be surprised.

I have used the new My Besties Letter "M" from Sherri Baldy's Etsy store.  It's a digi and perfect for my mom, i think..it could be made for Mother's Day as well!

So i here is the link for the blog tutorial..i followed the measurements just like it is shown.  I also watched a video to "see" how it was made but did not use those measurements.  The video link is here.
