I love making 3×3 card sets. They are fun, cute, and quick to make (usually!). For one of my good friend’s birthday, I decided to make her a set of these with a few other goodies!

The first picture is one of all the things that I put into the set.

Here is the card and envelope I made to give to her with her gift. I paper pieced the pursed using the Be Mine paper from Echo park.


I found the notepad below on the clearance aisle at Hobby Lobby a few months ago for 59 cents!

Here is how I dressed it up!

Next up is one of the boxes that the Papertrey Ink stamp sets come in. I decorated the box to put all the goodies in.

The next pics are of the 3×3 cards I made for her, along with matching envelopes.
