Sketch Saturday

 

 

 Happy Saturday! I hope you've had a good week, and are ready to get crafty. This week, I've created a fairly straightforward sketch. 

Each week, I will be posting a different sketch, along with three samples. One will be clean and simple, one slightly more stepped up, and the third will be more detailed. 

My hope is that you will take the original design, and put your own spin on it, like I have. 

I love sharing the creative journey with you,  and hope you'll play along!

12 Crafts of Christmas day 10- twist and close box

Image
 Today's project is a fun twist (ha!) on a gift box. While it looks challenging, it's really quite simple to put together, and all you need is cardstock, patterned paper, adhesive, a ruler and stylus or scoring tool. Trim 1/2 inch from your cardstock so you're left with an 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece. Score on the long edge at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2, and 10 inches. Score the short side at 2 1/2 inches, flip, and score the other side at 2 1/2 inches.  Mark one side as shown 1 1/4 inches from each score line, and score from the mark to the bottom corner. Fold and burnish to crease.  Cut the bottom of the box as shown to the bottom score line. Discard the small tab at the bottom.  Cut your patterned paper to 4 3/4 x 2 1/4. Run adhesive along the side and connect the two edges. Apply adhesive on the bottom edges and seal the box. Working from one side, pinch the top closed, and your box is done!  Check out the video here. Check out all of our projects as the 12 days continue here...
