T ent Fold Gift Container using greeting from Watercolor Christmas set.
Project Recipe
Base - Thick Whisper White 4" X 11" (so you can get 2 from one sheet of cardstock.)
DSP Cover - 3 1/2" x 8"
On the 11" side of the base score at: 3 1/2", 5 1/4",
8 3/4", and 10 1/2". Make a pencil mark at 4 3/8" and
9 5/8". With the pencil marks at the left score at 2 3/4". Put the 11" side on top and make diagonal score lines from the pencil mark to the bottom left and right of the side sections down to the 2 3/4" score line only. Fold and burnish all score lines. On the 10 1/2" score line cut off the bottom section. Cut from the bottom up to the 2 3/4" on each vertical score line. The rest of the 10 1/2" score line will be where you attach the sides, use tear n' tape. Fold in the bottom tabs and use tear n' tape on the bottom also. Pinch in the sides to make the top of the box come together.
Fold the DSP around the box bringing the top sides together to form a tent shape, and tape the two ends of the DSP to each other not to the box, as you slide the cover on and off to close the container. Decorate outside as you like making sure you don't make the cover so tight as you can't slip it off and on.
