Note Card Box

 After being asked to show how to make different styles of boxes, I then created a box to hold our Note Cards and envelopes.

The box was decorated using the Dandy Garden DSP. I managed to get 3 items out of one piece of 6" x 6" DSP. I cut 1^1/2" off the bottom and then cut the remainder in half. One half I decorated the lid of the box the other half went on the front of a note card. The 1^1/2" strip was cut in half and adheared top and bottom to another note card. I then added the sentiment strip in the centre.

BOX BASE - Start with a 9^3/8”x 7^7/8” piece of card.
1. Box Base - Start with a 9^3/8”x 7^7/8” piece of card. 

 2. On the long side score at 1”, 2” , 7^3/8”, 8^3/8”, 

 3. Turn to short side and score 1”,2”, 5^7/8”, 6^7/8” 

4. Cut up each corner to the second score line, you will be cutting a L shape out of each corner, leaving a tab. 

5. Fold on all the score lines, to make a crisp edge and assemble by tucking the corner tabs in and folding the edges over the tab. Repeat this on each edge, the tabs tucked in on each side. 

 6. BOX TOP - Start with a 9^1/2”x 8” piece of card. On the long side, score at 1”, 2”, 7^1/2”, 8^1/2”, Turn to short side and score 1”,2”, 6”, 7” Follow the cutting and folding instructions for the box base assembly. Decorate as desired.
