and have a headcold....can someone help me out? If I want to alter the mini pizza box - instead of 11x6, what do I start with and score at to make the finished box 3.5 square instead???

Just looked it up and did the adjustments. I am assuming you want to adjust the 4x4x1 box that is listed under resources? Here is what I came up with...

You will need a 5.5 x 10 inch piece of cardstock.

With the short side along the top, score at 1 inch and 4.5 inches.

Rotate 90 degrees, so that the long side is across the top.

Score at 1 inch, 4.5 inches, 5.5 inches and 9 inches.

Fold as described in the original instructions.
