Each shipment features cohesive colors and patterns. The individual designs are unique, but they look like they're all part of the same (adorable) family.

Set of 4 Scrapbooking Sheets (9" x 12")

These sheets are the largest and the lightest weight of the box. They're card stock sheets with a matte finish, but they seemed just a tad less stiff than the other items in the box.

The theme this month is working, and I am loving keyboard print!

Set of 4 Large Journal Cards (4" x 6")

These journal cards are made of light card stock and have designs on either side. Here are the flip sides:

The fill-in-the-blank pie chart is fun!

Set of 8 Small Journal Cards (3" x 4")

Again, these cards have designs on the back as well:

Set of 12 Square Journal Cards (3" x 3")

More double sided cards! I love the pastel colors and some of the old-school office imagery!

If you aren't using these for scrapbooking, they could work well as gift tags, too.

Pie Chart Stickers 

I was happy to see more pie charts in the box! These are great for showing what you spend your day/week/month doing!

Set of 9 2x2 Icon Squares

These squares are semi-transparent, so they'll be good for layering. And how cute is that office succulent?

1" Cork Numbers

These cork numbers have a sticky backing, and I'm thinking about using them for organizing my office.

Verdict: I think Messy Box does a great job of consistently delivering gorgeous designs in beautiful palettes. You can definitely buy planner items cheaper elsewhere, but everything in this box is exclusive to A Beautiful Mess, so if you like these designs, the value is definitely there!

What do you think of the February 2017 Messy Box?
