LOW LYING RECTANGULAR BOX




Hey crafting folks!!! I am back with another box for ya. I used a very pretty paper for making a low lying rectangular box! It is an easy box and its making style is similar to that of the card box that I made earlier. So….let’s start!

Card stock/Paper: 7 ½” X 4 ¼”


Score at:
On the long side (7 ½” side): ¾”, 6 ¾”
On the short side (4 ¼” side): ¾”, 2 ¾”, 3 ½”, 5 ½”
Here are the score lines:


You don’t need to actually cut anything from your paper but there is some notching…..


As you would have noticed that on the borders there are 3 squares and 2 rectangles on each side. Fold your right hand side square over the adjacent rectangle. as shown below and do the same thing on the opposite side.



Then fold the left hand side and center squares over the adjacent rectangle. as shown below and do the same thing on the opposite side.



Your box shall look like this with all the folds made.


So if you close the box, it will look like this….



I made a small embellishment. I have highlighted its border by using sponge and black paint/ink.


And here I have stuck the embellishment on the box with the help of double sided tape.


And there it is the box made…! Thank you so much for stopping by! If you like my projects pls subscribe. If you have any problems or suggestions, u can email them to me.

RECTANGULAR LIDDED BOX (1)

This is a beautiful lidded box, cuboid in shape with a considerable amount of space to store. You can use either card stock or paper for this purpose.


For the base of the box,

Card stock: 6 15/16”  x    4 15/16”  
Score at:  1 ½” on all 4 sides

For the lid of the box:
Card stock: 4” x 6”
Score at: 1” on all 4 sides

Burnish well!

Your base should look like this…(I have highlighted the score lines with a pen)

And your lid should be like this…

Here are the parts that you need to cut off.(shaded parts)



Make sure that you notch into your tabs like so...


There's where you need to put your adhesive
The same scenario follows for the lid as well.

So you construct your box as shown below
Do the same thing for the lid

And there’s your project, now you are ready to show off! Aren’t you?
