How to make a card with a box

This is the template I made and you can print it any size you like onto some medium strength card. Stick the small flaps to the sides and stick the corners with the square corner underneath the shaped one.

Cut-out the shape and score and fold along the dotted lines.

That's it really all it needs now is decoration and imagination. I added a packet of chicken cuppa soup to one-I made a label for anyone to use as the packet I had was just plain, and a small happiness book to the other. Lots of ideas of other things to add to more of these type of cards and would love to hear anyone else's ideas.

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery.
