Tutorial Thursday - Window Box

Hello everyone!

It's my turn today to share a tutorial here on the La-La Land Crafts inspirational blog and I decided to go for a quick yet useful project of creating a box and a card. To make the box look not too simple, we'll create an acetate window in it.

The finished box measures 4 3/4" X 4 3/4" X 1".

To make the lid you will need a card stock measuring 6 3/8" X 6 3/8" (scored at 3/4" from each of the four sides).

To make the base of the box you will need a card stock measuring 6 3/4" X  6 3/4" (scored at 1" from each of the four sides).

To create a card you will need a piece of card stock measuring 9 1/4" X 4 5/8" (scored at 4 5/8" on the long side).

Here are the pictures of the finished box and card:

Here's the list of the La-La Land Crafts products I used:

Christmas Bell Marci

Stitched Nested Circles

Stitched Elements

Christmas Ornament 3

Small Lacy Border

Small Snowflakes

Winter Branches

Heart Snowflakes

Large Rolled Rose

And here is the video tutorial:

I hope you will give this project a try.

Thank you for stopping by.

Tutorial Thursday - Foldover Box

Hi, it's Sandie here and today I am sharing how to make a Foldover Box. The box cover is quite large , at 6" x 6", and you alter the size of the internal box to make it bigger if you need to - the one I've made is 4" x 4".

Supplies - 

Stamp: Christmas Bell Marci

Dies: Snowflake Banner, Stitched Elements, Pretty Poinsettia, Open Leaf Flourish, Build-a-Christmas Tree. 

Cardstock - 

2 pieces red card cut to 6" x 9"

1 piece white card cut to 10" x 10"

4 pieces of white cut to 5 7/8" x 5 7/8"

2 pieces white cut to 5 7/8" x 2 7/8"

Design Paper - 

4 pieces cut to 5.75"" x 5.75"

2 cut to 5.75" x 2.75"

1 cut to 4" x 4"

8 cut to 3 7/8" x 2 7/8"

Scoring tools

Paper cutter

Ribbon

Adhesives

Scissors

Embellishments of choice

Score both 6" x 9" pieces of cardstock at 3" along the long side.

Fold on the score lines and crease with a bone folder. Adhere the 2 pieces of cardstock together with the 3" scored sections overlapping.

Taking the four 5 7/8" square pieces adhere the 5/75" square patterned paper on top. 

Adhere the two pieces of 5.75" x 2.75" patterned paper to the  5 7/8" x 2 7/8" white card pieces. 

Cut two lengths of ribbon approx 10" in length
Adhere each length to the center of each end of the red card.

Adhere the panels to the inside and outside of the card cover

Score the 10" square white card at 3" on all four sides

Cut into the corners of the white card to create tabs to form a box.

Fold the tabs inwards and adhere with strong glue. 

Taking the eight pieces of patterned paper, adhere four to the inside and four to the outside of the box. 

Apply adhesive to the the bottom of the box and centre it the bottom of the outer card base. This completes the box.

Embellish the top of the box as desired.
