Summer time goodies!


My tutorial today shows how I made these gift boxes for
my Grandsons summer holiday money.



Inside I have divided the box into 3 sections.
One for football chocolates, one for chews and the third
has a little file of bubbles with space to wrap some
money around them.

You can watch my tutorial here
Measurements needed to make one
Base card - 4 1/4" x 9 1/4"
Score long side - 4 1/4", 5"
Score short side - 3/4", 3 1/2"
Cover uses dies (see video)
Dividers - 4 pieces - 1 1/4" x 4 1/4"
DSP - 2 pieces - 2 5/8" x 4 1/8"

I would like to enter these into

Another miserable day here today.
Going to finish off some orders then
iron my new black out curtains in the hope we get
a descent nights sleep!!
