Today’s project is a No Glue Mini Card Gift Box sized to fit a set of 3″ x 3″ cards and envelopes featuring the Santa Express Suite Collection!
This box is a larger version of THIS BOX that I designed a few years ago! I’m just so fascinated by this style of box and how it goes together! It’s a fun way to use your patterned papers and gift mini cards for the holidays! Here’s a closer look at this box:
This style of box lends itself well to a triangular sentiment piece! Here’s how the box looks open:
The set of mini cards inside this gift box are created with one of the patterns in the Santa Express Designer Series Paper which, when cut, creates perfect scenes for mini cards! You can create 8 mini cards from one full sheet of Designer Series Paper.
I really can’t do this box justice in photos, so be sure to check out my video replay to see this box in action!
Here’s the template for reference (not to scale):
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful & blessed day!
