and instructions to make one: Forget stacking the wedding cards in a plain old box - this 'cake' doubles as a pretty package! Instructions Difficulty: Moderately Easy Steps 1Step OneGet two round hat boxes in different sizes. Make sure the smaller one is at least 9 inches wide. 2Step TwoCenter the smaller box on the lid of the larger one and trace around it with a felt-tipped pen. 3Step ThreeCut a hole slightly smaller than the one you drew. You will be setting the small box on top of the hole and don't want it to fall through. 4Step FourCut the bottom out of the small box, creating a wide tube. 5Step FiveGlue this tube to the larger lid. The boxes with their lids on will look like a two-tiered cake. 6Step SixCut a wide slit in the small lid, big enough to accommodate a greeting card. 7Step SevenSpray paint the boxes and lids eggshell white. Use several light coats. Remember, the boxes are made of cardboard and will warp if they get too wet. 8Step EightLet the paint dry completely and spray on a coat of clear matte finish. 9Step NineUse silk or real flowers, pearls and lace to decorate your 'cake.' 10Step TenTop the cake with a plastic bride and groom.

Okay - let's all say DUR JESS together...
Is a cake card box the thing you use to put your cards in at the wedding??? If so - Armyofabies makes INCREDIBLE ONES!
Make them to sell? Or just for friends?
