Card Box using Diagonal Plate

Dear Crafters,

Back on the 18th January, I shared a card box/envelope and today I share another one that is slightly bigger but uses a full 12″ x 12″ sheet of card stock.

This envelope holds at least 6 A5 cards and 6 C6 envelopes. It is really just a thicker envelope that I made using the diagonal plate with the Simply Scored.

I started with an 12″ x 12″piece of card stock and scored on the diagonal plate at 4″ and 6″. Tip: Score from the ruler along the top and the sides so you don’t have to turn your card stock.

Turn the card stock 90 degrees and score both sides diagonally at 5″ and 7″.

Cut out the small triangles as shown below

Cut up the scorelines as shown below

Now add your Designer Series Paper (Wildflower Fields DSP) and your Tear and Tape adhesive as shown

Also add another piece of DSP to the back of the box

I have decorated the front using a flower I made with the Bow Builder Punch

I adhered the flower to the top flap of the envelope/box as the weight will hold it closed.

Wildflower Fields Card Box

Dear Crafters,

Today I share a gift idea in the way of a large envelope/card box to place some cards and envelopes in to give as a lovely gift to someone.

I have used Blackberry Bliss, this stunning rich colour coordinates with the Wildflower Fields Designer Series Paper that you can choose for free with any $90 order during Saleabration.

This envelope can hold 6 A5 cards and C6 envelopes. It is really just a thicker envelope that I made using the diagonal plate with the Simply Scored.

I started with an 11″ x 11″piece of cardstock and scored on the diagonal plate at 3-1/2″ and 5-1/2″. Tip: Score from the ruler along the top and the sides so you don’t have to turn your card stock.

Turn the card stock 90 degrees and score both sides diagonally at 4-1/2″ an 6-1/2″.

I have used a retired brad as the closer on this one, the flap folds down and underneath it to hold it closed.

I have even put a piece of DSP on the back to dress it up and show off this gorgeous DSP!

Isn’t it a lovely way to give some cards to someone as a gift?!!!

Gift Box for a set of Cards & Envelopes

Dear Crafters,

Today I share with you a gift box for a set of cards & envelopes and stamped with the Watercolour Wings stamp set.

Stampin Up Watercolour Wings Gift Box of Cards

I started with a 12″ x 12″ sheet of cardstock and cut it down to 8″ x 11-1/2″.

Score the long side at ¾”, 5-3/8”, 6-1/8”, 10-¾”.

Score the short side at 7-1/4”.

Stamp your images as shown.

Place short edge back on Simply Scored and score at ¾” (through the butterfly) so it gives a wrap around effect. Fold and burnish all the score lines. Cut notches and add adhesive as shown. I put the base together first then used the 1″ circle punch for the notch at the front, before adhering the lid together.

I stamped the butterfly starting with Watermelon Wonder, the second image in Cucumber Crush, then the final image in Island Indigo. This is what it looks like when opened up with cards and envelopes inside!
