Mother’s Day for two extra special mothers calls for extra special cards.  When a friend showed me the Card in a Box I knew I’d found just the thing.

These amazing cards are a three dimensional box full of flowers (or other items) which fold flat for mailing.

The Serene Stamper has a good sample card and instructions linked on Pinterest that I used, including a helpful video tutorial.
