For this weeks assignment we could use either the large or small File Folder Box Holder Set.

I used the small File Folder sized to hold A2 cards.

I used two dividers plus the divider and trimming pieces. 

Here is the inside view with it empty.

Side view with cards inside. 

Front view with cards. The flower is recollections from Michaels.
