How to Make a Sweet Dessert Card

January 31, 2026 by Heather Holbrook

How to Make a Sweet Dessert Card

Oh my goodness, doesn’t this Dessert Box card from Jaycee look good enough to eat!? He used dies and different techniques to give each of these yummy confections a realistic look. Each dessert starts with colored cardstocks cut with layering dies, to some he added inking to give depth and dimension and some have added Glossy Accents for shine. The strawberries have white chocolate drizzle created with melted wax (normally used for making wax seals) and each tasty treat was placed into vellum wrappers and placed into sections of the scored box card base. The sentiment on this card could easily be switched from Birthday to Valentine’s Day or Anniversary too.
