New Annual Catalogue Week. Project No 3


To celebrate our new Annual Catalogue, & our lovely new In-Colours, I'm bringing you 5 projects, which are all variations on a theme, of fold flat boxes & bags.

Todays project is this simple box made in the lovely new Misty Moonlight, and as with all of this weeks projects it will fold flat for storage.



Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by

Instructions:

You will need a piece of cardstock measuring 8 1/4" x 11" (21cm x 28cm)

To decorate it you will need

1 panel   of DSP 4"   x 2 3/4" (10cm x 6.5cm) layered on Whisper White 4 1/8" x 2 7/8"  (10.5 x 7cm)

2 panels of DSP 4"  x 1 3/4" (10cm x 4cm)   layered on Whisper White 4 1/8" x 1 7/8" (10.5 x 4.5cm)

2 panels of DSP 2 3/4" x 1 3/4" (6.5cm x 4cm)  layered on Whisper White 2 7/8" x 1 7/8" (7 x 4.5cm)

Score on the short side at 2", 6 1/4".        (5cm, 16cm)
   and on the long side at 2", 5", 7",10"    (5cm, 12.5cm, 17.5cm, 25cm)

Using a ruler and your scoring tool, score diagonal lines as in the template below.

Remove the sections marked in the template, and round the corners of the resultant flap. 


Fold & burnish all score lines, then decorate with the panels as in the picture below.

Fold the whole side sections in towards the middle, then pull the side panels (the decorated section) up to form the sides of the box. Fold the top over & tuck the flap into the pocket made on the other end by the folded in corner sections. 

Decorate as you wish!
