Some you lovely ladies at Aldershot wanted the box card template, well it's here
With this card I made earlier - Bellissimo range
This was inspired by the lovely Julie Hickey who was on create and craft this morning. I so loved her box cards that I had to go and make one for my demo in Portsmouth range tomorrow - I used Bellissimo as it's ideal for spring & Mother's Day. But will be buying some craftwork card box cards as it's so much easier. & they are gorgeous too !
I used an A4 white card and divided it up as below photo
S
Mark out 4 panels from the left at 7cm 14cm 21cm & 28cm and the bit left over is trimmed down
As shown to be the glued tab.
Mark with pencil a horizontal line about one third down & cut down from the top just to this
Pencil line , see photo above, these tabs will fold back.
Now score the 4 x 7 cm panels & the glue tab.
On the horizontal line only score the first 2 from the left and the last tab. If you look at
The finished box card the back flap stands up behind the design & the others fold down.
I made the mistake of scoring all mine , see above !
& and had to stick a panel over the back to keep it up.
Before sticking the box together add panels of pretty papers
Glue the box together using the tab.
Make your self some little z tabs that will fit inside the box to hold your
Embellishments , you could also cut some white 'branches' to attach to the tabs and add more
Embellishments .
Always folding flat your card to make sure your additions
Will still allow the card to go into the envelope
Decorate to your hearts content
Very nice box card and nice instructions.
