Chocolat Box Instructions

[mstout928]

I've been asked by several people to post the instructions for this box. Spencer demonstrated it at Leadership conference in Houston. If you haven't seen the box, it can be viewed here:

Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

Using a 12" x 12" piece of cardstock, create the main box by following the attached diagram. No adhesive is necessary!

The "cover" is made with 2 sheets of double sided paper, and one sheet of lightweight chipboard in between. All measure 5 1/4" x 12" and was scored at 4 7/8" and 7 1/8". I adhered them together with sticky strip, but a glue stick, or even modge podge would probably work.

Place ribbon under the box, wrap the cover around the box and adhere with sticky strip.

Hope this helps!

For some reason many of the files won't open here in SplitCoastStampers... so you will need to right click on the file... "save target as" and save it somewhere on your desktop. It should then open just fine for you. I simply make a habit of doing this each time I want to view a file, and then I don't have to remember which ones do/do not open on the site

Hoping this helps... have a FUNtastic day!
