Boxes, boxes, boxes :)

Hello again, 

I've been asked quite a few times how I make my boxes for my cards, well I'm sure there's lots of tutorials out there but this is how I make mine, quite simple really.

These are 6" square

First I choose a good quality card, this is my favourite it was recommended to me by my lovely friend Sue (playingwithpaper) on Docrafts,  I buy the card here

1) First I cut out two squares... 

  One at 8" Square (for the Base) and score it at 7" all around

and the other 8 & 1/8" Square (for the Lid)

and score it at 7&1/8" all around

Next I cut into all the corners like this

 and fold at all the scored lines

 Glue in the corners like below

 and there you have it, one base & one lid! 

and for posting I use these brown Pizza style boxes below

I hope this is useful to some of you (for ease of finding it again, I will add it to my tutorial page above) 

The Pizza Style boxes are from Cartons Direct online

Have a lovely weekend

Hugs
