Scor-Pal September More Than One Score

 


This month, I made a card with some 3D flowers, so I needed to make a box for an envelope. 



To make this box, you will need:
2 pieces of heavy cardstock - 7 1/4" x 9 1/2"

Items to decorate, if desired. I used Heartfelt Creations Fuchsia Clusters stamp set, coloured with Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.

Take one of the pieces of cardstock, and place it in your Scor-Pal with the 7 1/4" side at the top. Score at 1" and 6 3/4". Turn it 90° to the left, and score at 1/2", 1 1/2" and 8 1/2". 


The dotted lines are the score lines, and the solid lines are the cut lines. When I made this template, it was 1/2" too wide. The written instructions give the correct measurements. Remove the parts marked with an X. If you want to decorate your box, it is much easier to do it now.




Repeat with the second piece of cardstock. You will make one more cut on this piece - the top right hand section - leaving just the tab at the top left. Place Scor-Tape on the right hand side flap of each piece.


Remove the tape backing and attach the two pieces of cardstock together on both sides. Place Scor-Tape on the bottom flap as shown below. Fold in side flaps, then the flap with the tape. Remove tape backing and fold in the last flap to adhere.


Here is the finished box.


For my card, I used the Heartfelt Creations Cascading Fuchsia and Fuchsia Clusters stamp sets on the front panel and then taped the panel to a card base. I scored a diagonal pattern in the green border, taped it to the front of the panel and attached the 3D fuchsias.
