instructions:
1-Cut Your Paper:
~2-1/4″ x 8-3.4″. This works well if the pattern has no “right side up”.
~If desired, cut two 1/4″ x 3-1/4″ pieces for the sides. I didn’t do it for my box.
2-Tear & Tape:
~Put Tear & Tape on the outside of your Sweet Treat Box as shown. The Black Lines are the Score Lines.
NOTE: The end without the flaps is the front.
~Add Tear & Tape along the back side of the Long Sides of your patterned DSP.
~Peel off all the Tear & Tape backings.
~Attach your Paper starting at one end and centering it along the box. Do NOT press down hard on your Paper until AFTER you have bent the box along the score lines. NOW press along the Tape to secure your paper to the box.
3-Stamp:
~Use Real Red ink to stamp several Hearts or some Words directly onto your paper.
~If you chose a busier pattern, then you can add some Words on either Die Cut or Punched Label.
4-Finish Your Box:
~Peel off the Tape Backings from the Box Sides.
~Fold these sides under the other sides trying to make your box squared.
~You can put your Treats into your Box now if you want. OR you can add them later.
~Wrap your Ribbon around your Box and tie a Bow. You can put a Glue Dot or two under the bow to hold it in place if you want.
Your Valentine’s Day Sweet Treat Box is finished and ready to give to someone special.
