Project Recipe
Cut Fresh Fig cardstock. Cut to 8 1/4" X 3". Score this piece at 3", 4", 7", and 8". Cut another piece of Fresh Fig 5" X 5" and score 1" on all four sides.
Cut the DSP to 9" X 9" and score at 3" and 6" on all sides. The DSP should resemble a tic-tac-toe board. Cut away the 4 corners leaving a piece that looks like a plus sign. Use the Detailed Trio Punch to round the corners.
Crease the score lines on the box lid. Notch all four corners leaving a tab. Adhere the tabs with the liquid multipurpose glue
Crease the score lines with the bone folder. Use the 1 1/2" punch centered in the section closest to the 1/4" tab. To make a template for easier positioning of the circle, punch one from a contrasting piece of scrap cardstock. Adhere the circle to the center then punch. Assemble the rectangle and secure to the square in the center of the DSP.
Decorate as desired and add the K-cup!
