This card turned out so cute with the button embellishments for a baby boy. The sentiment is from the Petite Pairs stamp set and I used Pool Party card stock as my base color.
Here are the card in a box directions:
1. Cut a piece of
card stock to measure 8 1/4” x 9”
2. Score along the
9” end at 2 1/8”, 4 ¼”, 6 3/8” and 8 1/2 “
3. Turn 90’ and
score at 2 3/4”
4. With the 8 1/4”
side on top, and your 2 3/4” score to the left of the card stock cut to measure
6”. Save the piece that is cut off.
5.
Measure the
‘scrap pieces’ and cut to 3 1/8, making sure to include the ‘tab’. You’ll end up with a piece that now has a tab
along each side. Cut in half at 1 1/8”
so now you have to strips, each with a ‘tab’ on each end. Fold tabs up in a ‘z’ and adhere sticky strip
to ends and set aside.
6. Take main card
stock piece so the 2 3/4” side is at the top and cut along the small square
score lines to create flaps. Trim off
tiny strip left over, you don’t need it.
7. Fold on the
creases and use sticky strip to adhere box together.
8. To decorate the
flaps you can use DSP or card stock for the top four panels, cutting them at 2”
x 2 5/8”
9. Add two ‘z’
strips inside of box – these are your two panels to stick your decorations that
you want to ‘pop’ out of the box.
10. If you want to
add card stock for writing your message to the back of the box – this piece
will need to be cut at 5 7/8” x 2”
11. Embellish as
desired. Create your own envelope for
this card using the envelope punch board.
