You need to cut the end score marks and then notch them out. This
makes your ends look nicer once they are all attached.

the score marks. Then your going to cut off and remove the bottom tabs. I notched these
also.

box.

Attach your top tabs inside. This is making the lid to the box.

95.JPG (106625 bytes)

You need to add adhesive on the back of the long tab and it needs to be
attached to the inside of your bottom box.

96.JPG (102674 bytes)

Here is another picture of the lid attached to the bottom.

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

Now your box is complete. The lid should close over the bottom with no
problems.

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

Your complete box open.

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

You need your 9 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece. You need to score this
piece at 1" on both short sides and 1 long side.

adhesive an attach to make a divider for your bottom of your box.

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

Now you need your 9" x 3" piece. You need to score this piece
at 3", 4 1/2", 6" You need to fold and add adhesive as you did above.
(sorry for the double post in the picture)

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

This is how your dividers will go in the bottom of your box.

97.JPG (104092 bytes)

Now your box is complete.

On the left side of your box it will hold your A2 size cards and
envelopes.

Small Gift Box Tutorial

1.jpg (91165 bytes)



2.JPG (87899 bytes)



2.JPG (87899 bytes)



You need a pieces of cardstock that measures 11 x 6 1/2.



7.JPG (99692 bytes)



On the 6 1/2" side you're going to score at 1", 2 1/2", 5
1/4", 6 3/4" & 9 1/2"



8.JPG (87522 bytes)



On the 11" side you're going to score both sides at 1 1/2".



9.JPG (100028 bytes)



Now you're going to cut away the parts shown below. The 1" score

line is at the bottom of the screen. You're going to cut up to the 2 1/2" score line

and remove that piece on both sides. On the opposite end you're going to cut out and

remove the center piece. I notch out my center flaps so they fold in better. At this time

I also used my crop-o-dile to punch holes in the two tabs at the top. You can also use
your

scallop punch on the other end.



91.JPG (95415 bytes)



You need to flip your box over and add adhesive as shown.



92.JPG (97662 bytes)



You need to fold the little tabs in and stick them to the piece with the
adhesive.



93.JPG (101610 bytes)



You want to make sure the flaps with the hole punched goes on the outside of the box.



94.JPG (96631 bytes)



Now you are ready to decorate.



95.JPG (106625 bytes)



Here are the measurements you need for your designer paper.



1 piece 2 1/2" x 3 1/4" (font)

2 pieces 2 1/2" x 1 1/4" (sides)

1 piece 3 1/4" x 1 1/4" (top)

1 piece 3/4" x 3 1/4" (front flap- scallop)



As you can see I pulled the flaps out and tied with a ribbon. You can
also just tuck these inside your box.



1.jpg (91165 bytes)



Here is another box just make with cardstock size 11" x 6"
using the same score lines.
