I've finally figured out how to get pics from my phone to my laptop via the iCloud. What a learning curve! I'm posting 2 sets of photos.
The first, titled Stationary Box, is from a Pinterest post.
Two instructional videos that can be found at Dannie's Designs :

This project seemed pretty intimidating at first, but if you take good notes and follow the measurement exactly, it will turn out fine.
The stationary box opens to reveal 3 compartments. One for standard (A-2) cards and envelopes.A place for 3" x 3" gift cards, and one for gift tags I added an envelop for address labels and one for stamps.
For my A-2 cards I selected a butterfly pattern from the Mariposa stack (DCWV). I love that stack - and the full sheet of butterflies fit right in with my blue and yellow theme.
I used a 'One Page Wonder' (OSW) pattern for a 6" x 6" sheet of patterened paper also found of Pinterest. FYI - a web search yielded lots of OSW patterns for 6" x 6", 8 1/2" x 11:, and 12" x 12" sizes of paper.
