I enjoy making four-piece greeting cards sets along with a matching box. My customers seem to prefer a mix of sentiments. I stamp two each of four or five sentiments and apply a peel away tab. This allows the recipient to choose the perfect sentiment to suit their needs. Check out
THIS posting to see more information on how I package the sentiments.

Helpful hint: When using border punches, I like to have it centered when applying it to the card base or card layer. I find that centering the piece of cardstock in the punch and then moving the piece of paper to the right and to the left results in a messy punch. I always start with my paper in the left side of the punch and move it to the right. I first created a template using the Lace Ribbon Border punch; I started out with a 7" piece of cardstock. I lined up my template and centered it to the piece I was going to attached it to. I was then able to see what part of the lace ribbon ended up on the right side of the cardstock. I found the starting point on the punch and applied a label showing me where to begin punching. Perhaps this illustration will show you what a mean.
