I adore these images drawn by Mi Ran, I've had a few recently that seem to fit with a lot of the family/friends cards that I'm making.

The card design is another box that folds flat so that you can slip it in to an envelope if you don't want to make a box :)

I love the way that the flappable (if that's a good word for them) sides literally fall into shape when the box is opened out.

Another side view :)

And a little close up of the tiny embellishments.  I used a Crafts-Too die called Butterfly garden on the inside of the box and used the little butterflies on jewellery wire to decorate around the rest of the card.  Such a sweet little die that's becoming one of my favourites :)

 

 

This is how it will sit in the envelope/box
