"B" is for "Boxed Cards" (Barry) and since this one is a stamped image it also goes with my last name "S" (Snarr). This is for my niece as she always gets a mermaid card every year from me and it folds flat for mailing:

And because my sister has her birthday next month as well she also will be getting a "Boxed Card" - B for Barry. This is a picnic basket box card from the Silhouette store that I added the fun embellishments to give it more texture and interest.

Barry, your boxed cards are simply beautiful and well done such a wonderful little gift at the same time....
I had a feeling you were going to do the box style and you do them perfectly...thanks for playing with your
initials B & S.

Terrie, your sample cards are great... and this challenge is... well... challenging!
Barry knocked it out of the ballpark with his amazing boxed cards!

Meanwhile, it took me waaaay too long to try to find a word that started with a K. (I think I overthunk it!!)
Finally, came up with this rationale for my card-
I fell in love with this sweet little bathing beauty the first time I saw her. The title of the digi from The Paper Shelter is "My Bathingsuit" and the way that the little cutie is posing like a diva makes me smile. So... I used the initial of my first and last name-KA-and call my card "Keenly Adorable!" (When I googled for K words, one definition for Keenly is “Intensely.”)

I also think that the banners I made from scraps of the striped paper to create a swag for the inside of the card is Keenly Cool... or maybe I should say Keenly Kool?!

Kathy, she is indeed Keenly Adorable!

I used dry and heat embossing on my card.

I will be back to making cards in the Fall sometime. Booked solid with pet sitting so this was my last hurrah for a while.
