Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Score 11” side of cardstock at 1/2", 3 1/2", 5 3/4", and 8 3/4". -
Step 2
Score the 8 1/2” side at 3" and 6 1/2". -
Step 3
Fold the bottom of the card stock (the portion with the short scored sections) under and stamp across the exposed area of card stock. -
Step 4
Cut each score line up to the intersecting score line to create flaps as shown. -
Step 5
On one edge of the card stock, you’ll have 1/2” flaps.
Cut off the two 1/2" flaps on the ends, leaving the center flap. -
Step 6
Place Sticky Strip™ on the 1/2" flap.
Be sure to place the adhesive strip on the front (stamped) side. Leave the liner on the adhesive. -
Step 7
Place Sticky Strip™ on the other flaps as shown to createl interior sections of the box.
Leave the liner on the adhesive. -
Step 8
Center punch over panel and push the cardstock all the way into the Wide Oval punch to create handles for the box. -
Step 9
Use the corner rounder on the corners of the handles. -
Step 10
Peel the liner from the 1/2" flap on the side of the box (mid section).
Fold the box into shape so that the ends meet the adhesive. If necessary, fold the flaps out of your way. -
Step 11
Peel the liner from the side flaps and adhere them to the interior sides of the box for added stability. -
Step 12
Remove the liner from the bottom flaps.
Fold in the two smaller flaps and then adhere one of the longer flaps to the smaller flaps.
I fold in the flap that’s on the side where the seam is so the front of the box will be seamless.
Fold the remaining flap into place. -
Step 13
Decorate the front of the box. Use the Crop-a-Dile™ to punch holes for the ribbon closure.
