Hi, Amy ~
What do you think about adding an additional category for "Beyond Cards". I just uploaded a wire-bound card organizer book, and think maybe that it would fit into such a category. I didn't see anything else appropriate - it's not really altered art, but I guess could be 3D....
What say ye?

Hum, like this idea. My post-it-note holder can go in here - now I gotta take a picture so I can upload it. Also lends itself to things like home-made nugget boxes, bags, etc.

OK, I'll admit I've never heard of nugget boxes. The only nuggets I could think of were "treasures" Tucker left for me. And I don't think it is for the fast food kind either. Please more info. ~C8>

Is it Hershey's or Nestle that makes chocolate candies called nuggets? Any who, you can stamp on small address labels, wrap the label around the chocolate or use a small stamp and punch/cut it out to place on the top of the chocolate nugget. Then the nuggets can be put into a cardstock box, stamped or not. Typically these are open boxes that you can then wrap a stamped piece of cardstock or pretty designer paper around. The paper can be tied with fibers, create an embellished sleeve to slip over the box/paper to keep it together, etc. Another variation would be to create a box top to put over the box base holding the nuggets. I've also seen some pretty nifty altered tins with nuggets nestled inside.
I'm actually eyeing some manufacturer's chocolate 'treasures'. I think the chocolate, caramel and pecan would be fun as favors or the base of a place card for Turkey Day gatherings.
Can you tell I'm in craft fair mode?

Thank you for the much more appealing version of a nugget box. Thank you for a great description. Yes, you are in craft fair mode. ~C8>

You could wrap up Tucker treasures and give them to deserving folk. Sort of a Misfortune cookie!
