    • Now today I thought it would be a great opportunity to show you what you can do (for starters!) using the Lunch Box Love Notes & Additions, with the Lunch Box Love Notes Cut File (also available in PDF :D). I’ve talked about how this set is perfect for making little love notes to tuck away in someones lunch bag, in a briefcase, maybe a jacket pocket…..even stick them under the pillow!

    We can all use a little “love note” of encouragement from time to time.

    These “love notes” don’t have to be time consuming, just serve their purpose of making someone know you are thinking of them, and you love them.

    So let’s start with a VERY simple set of “love notes” that you can EASILY reproduce!

    Lunch Box Love Set

    This used theLunch Box Love Notes & Additons

    First: let me say that this note card is beyond FAB! I love it. It’s the perfect size, and the tuck tab means NO envy needed!

    Second: Can you say 5 minutes? Sometimes simple is best.

    YUP! All 4 (after my Cricut cut them out) done in under 5 minutes!

    I first printed my Elementary patterned paper from the Sensational Staples collection, and cut them to fit my love notes.

    Then I simply stamped the elements from the Lunch Box Love Notes & Additons set in black ink, onto white cardstock (already cut into circles, with black mat layers) and assembled. A little glitter and before you knew it-DONE!

    Here is the Just a note to say…..

    I stamped the XOXO on the paper (its another sentiment in the set)

    Then on the inside I stamped

    I’m so proud of you!

    How super sweet and simple is that? Totally gender and age neutral!!

    Now what about this one?

    cookie-cards.JPG

    I love that the Oreo cookie says “smart cookie” right on it! I really thought it was a great addition to the set.

    Now on the inside I had several options I could have chosen, given my image, but I chose

    inside-cookie-note.JPG

    as sweet as you are!

    I love it!

    Inside the You’re a star one reads: you are so special

    Then inside the My Lil Cupcake reads: Packed with Love (that a great one when you send a special treat (like a homemade cupcake!! for a snack)

    OK now how about trying an actual card? (I have so much more to share!)

    For A Special Teacher

    note-to-teacher2.jpg

    I adore this!

    I LOVE red, black and green together! ESPECIALLY for school theme. I know its totally predictable, but if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

    This card once again used the Elementary paper, and a sentiment from Lunch Box Love Notes Additions.

    school-teach.JPG

    I used the alphabet lunchbox front to create a cute “old school” chalkboard looking tag!

    The red panel paper is the Sensational Staples ABC’s pattern, printed on the red cardstock for a subtle detailed patterned paper.

    Now my LUNCHBOX!! 

    Sadly you cannot see that it is cut out and on dimensionals, or that it has glitter on the flowers. SUPER CUTE! I love it. I adored the little juice box stamped next to it too.

    I love having the ability to interchange my lunchbox fronts to suit ANY occasion. It can also be a briefcase. You can add OTHER images that fit inside that open rectangle too! You aren’t limited by just the lunchbox fronts you see in the set! You can obviously use ANY of  the single images in there too, but feel free to mix it up with some other sets! That goes for sentiments as well.
