INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Take your 8-1/2″ x 11″ Garden Green cardstock and put the 8-1/2″ side against the ruler of your Paper Trimmer. Score at 2″ and 6-1/2″ (2″ from each side as shown).
2. Put the 11″ side against your Paper Trimmer Ruler and score at 3″, 5″, 8″, and 10″. Cut off the edge flaps from the Box Lid Section and the Box Front Flap as shown. Crease all score lines with your Bone Folder.
3. Cut the side flaps at the 3″ and 5″ score lines. Cut with a small “V” shape to reduce bulk when putting the box together.
4. Put Tear & Tape as shown on both the outside of the box and the inside of the box. The Tear & Tape down the center of the box for the Ribbon is 9-1/4″ long. Now is the time if you want to stamp or decorate your box.
5. Cut your Ribbon at about 16-1/2″ long. Attach to the Tear & Tape down the center of the box leaving the untaped ends equal – about 3-1/2″ on each end.
Now to put the box together.
6. Remove the Tape backing from the Back Section Flaps and stand them up. The Back Section Flaps will be BETWEEN the Back and Front Section Flaps. You might want to test the positioning before you remove the Tear & Tape backing.
7. Attach the Box Back Flaps to the INSIDE of the Box Bottom Flaps making sure the box is squared.
8. Now put the Box Front Flaps on the OUTSIDE of the Box Bottom Flaps and attach. Use your Bone Folder to rub the sides where the adhesive is.
Your Box is put together!

10. Tie your box closed. Add your words Label to your Box Front below the ribbon knot.
