Stampin’ Up! Tutorial Tuesday (Part 2 of 2)
Posted on: Tuesday, June 17th, 2008.jpg)
Today’s Stampin’ Up! Tutorial Tuesday is a continuation of the tutorial from Thursday on the 3" x 3" scalloped note cards. As promised, today I am posting a tutorial and template on how to make this note box for the 3" x 3" cards & their envelopes. Althought the original tutorial shows 4 cards and envelopes, you could actually fit 5 cards with their envelopes.
Step 1: Cut and score an 8" x 10" piece of DP as directed by the downloaded template (other than the rounded flap, that will come next step).

Step 2: Using your coluzzle, cut out the largest circle from a scrap of cardstock and use that as your template to trace a rounded edge where shown on the template (you are aligning the edges of the circle with the edges of the 6" score line).

Step 3: This is what your traced rounded flap looks like. Cut along your pencil line.

Step 4: This is what y our template now looks like.

Step 5: I’ve flipped my box upside down so you can hopefully see what I’ve done more clearly. Using Tombow Mulit-purpose adhesive or sticky strip, I stuck the small bottom flaps to the inner middle flap of the box bottom.

Step 6: My box is right side up again, and now I’m sticking the smaller side flap to the 1/2" bottom flap using Tombow or sticky strip.

Step 7: Place some adhesive along the edge of the right side flap and bring across and stick to the smaller left flap. Your box is now assembled.

Step 8: punch a 1/8" hole into a SCRAP of DP, center your 3/4" circle punch around this hole, and punch out (your 3/4" circle will now have a 1/8" circle punched out the middle of it). Punch out a 1/8" hole on your box back as shown.

Step 9: Attach your 3/4" circular piece using a rhinestone or regular brad. Do not stick the 3/4" circle down as you will insert the end of the the thread underneath the circle to begin the closure.

Step 10: Repeat on the flap.

Step 11: Take a 6" piece of copper thread (or linen thread), begin by wrapping it around the brad but UNDERNEATH the bottom 3/4" circle (it will stick there without any adhesive), then wrap it figure 8 style around the top and bottom brads to hold the box closed. Decorate your box front as desired.

this was totally the coolest tutorial. i have just recently bought a scor-it and am just going crazy with the whole box thing. yours is one of the best – i just made a rough copy with junk paper – now i am going to use some of my oh-so-carefully hoarded SU! designer paper. thanks for the wonderful instructions!!

Love this little box. However, I have scored and cut this twice and I think the measurement of the paper is wrong. Is the paper supposed to be 8x 10 1/4? Mine keeps coming up short when I bring the right side over to adhere onto the left tab . Just my observation. Maybe I am measuring wrong but thought I would check.
