I will show you in the video below, how to make these adorable Box Stand-Up! Cards
You will need:
Cardstock: 8.5 X 5.5 Score along long edge at 1/2", 1", 4.5", and 5"
On the side that has the short edge scores, this will be your front so you will want to cut or punch out the areas that you want for your windows using circle or rectangle framelets or punches.
You'll want a good heavy adhesive like Stampin' Seal+ to hold it together
This video will walk you step by step thru this project
I have always resisted making this fold because, from the look of it, it is too hard to do or too time consuming. When one of my team members demonstrated this fold for our virtual team meeting, I realized just how easy it was! And I just had to make my own. I hope you enjoy it too.
I apologize, that this stamp set is retired...I guess and happens to be the second stamp set that I've used in the last 2 weeks that was retired. I actually employed helpers to change out stuff after the new catalog and I guess that's not something I can afford to delegate from now on!
So, here's the front of the card:
And here is the open version with the belly band off
Here's how to cut your cardstock:
Base: 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 inches Score at 2 1/8 and 6 3/8
Front: Designer Series Paper: 5 3/8 X 2 1/8
Inside Sheeth: Cardstock 3 1/4 X 5 1/2
Designer Paper 3 X 5 1/4
Shutter: 3 X 3 3/4 (2 pieces)
Score on long side at 3/8" and apply tear and tape
To make the tail: Mark center of 3" side and move up 1 3/4" from the bottom
Then cut from the point to the mark on each side
Sentiment: 2 1/4 X 2 1/4
Belly Band: 1 1/2 X 9 Score at 2 1/2 and 6 3/4 plus a hair
And finally, Here's the video I did to show you step by step
