We love to print
Skip navigationIf you’ve used up a whole box of MOO MiniCards, you’ll be left with lots of new contacts and… A white box without a purpose.
Luckily we’ve got just the purpose for these blank canvases – the MOO MiniCard MiniGift Box Competition! We’ve been inspired in the past by the amazing things you’ve done with MiniCard boxes and thought we’d give you a little nudge to celebrate your creativity, in time for Christmas and the Holidays.
We’d love to see what you can do with some felt, marker pens, glue, glitter, scrapbooking paper, polymer clay, yarn, and anything else you can find about the house by crafting a MOO MiniCard box (old or new) into either a festive Gift Box for family and friends or – if you’re the Etsy type – packaging for the handcrafted creations you sell.
Without further ado, the rules and and everything you’ll need to know are below…

I HAVE to enter this!
THIS IS AWESOME!
Ok kids, I mean elves, Can we use one of your business card boxes or does it have to be one of the MiniCard boxes?
What a fun way to begin the holidays! I have never entered a contest before…but this sounds like too much fun to pass on…so I’m in!!!!
We are both going to enter! Yippee!
Your site was just brought to my attention and I saw this contest and would LOVE to enter! The problem is I don’t have a mini box… is there any way I can get one? I’m a graphic designer and I would like to order some cards but I have some information pending that I’d like to put on them so I have to wait a bit.
Let me know how I can get a mini box! Love this idea!
Thanks
Steph
@Stephanie – hello! The competition is open until 28th December, so you have plenty of time :)
That is a great idea … I was already thinking how to use my empty MiniCard boxes … and your XMas Competition was a great signal to start working creatively on this item … already uploaded and also to be seen on my blog, so check it out!
