Cut along the 2 1/8″, 4 1/4″, 6 3/8″, 8 ½ score lines on one side to the middle score line. On the 8 ½ score line snip off past the middle score line on the diagonal to remove half the strip. Fold along score lines to make the box (bottomless). Apply sticky strip to the small tab with the corner snipped off to secure the box.

To create the inside supports for embellishments cut two pieces of cardstock 3 1/8″ x 1 1/5″. Score each end at 1/2″. Fold like a “Z” and secure inside box with double sided tape.

Decorate outside of box with coordinating papers from the Paper Pad. Add some rhinestone strips and sticker strips from the Sticker Sheet.

Cut strips of Acetate sheet to invisibly lift embellishments out of box. Fussy cut flowers, use collectables or stamp flowers. Fussy cut leaves from the Paper Pad. Adhere flowers and leaves onto Acetate strips and then onto supports inside of the box with double sided tape or foam tape for extra dimension.
