A few weeks ago, I was flipping through a several-years-old UK craft magazine I checked out randomly from my library’s e-magazine selection just to see how the process works on a new platform. I came across a box that I thought would be fun to adapt, and that’s what we have here.

I sort of wish now that I had made it a little smaller so that 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper would work, but I think that just means it’s an opportunity for a future project you can expect to see in the next few weeks.
I created this on March 15, 2021, during a Facebook Live. It’s also on my YouTube channel.
The measurements I used are as follows.
- Three pieces of cardstock:
- 6-1/2″ x 11″, scored at 2″ all around
- 6-7/8″ x 5-1/2″
- 6-15/16″ x 2-1/2″
- Two pieces of patterned paper to layer directly onto cardstock:
- 6-7/8″ x 5-1/2″
- 6-15/16″ x 2-1/2″
- Two pieces of patterned paper that is a half-inch shorter and one inch narrower to layer on the top:
- 5-7/8″ x 5″
- 5-15/16″ x 2″
An overview of how to put it together follows.
- Assemble simple box with the scored piece of cardstock.
- Round the top left and right corners of the other two pieces of cardstock and the coordinating patterned paper with the Detailed Trio Punch.
- Layer the patterned paper onto the pieces of cardstock. Add the taller one to the inside back of the box, and the shorter one to the front of the box.
