So, let's start and take for production:
- Diagram of our box;
- Red cardboard A4 format three sheets;
- Scrappaper in a delicate tone, maybe beige, sheet size 30*30 cm;
- Cutting: red shoe, large butterfly, openwork circle;
- A picture with the inscription “On this wonderful day”;
- Stamped inscription “Happy Birthday”;
- White cardboard, whatman paper;
- Metal pendant and brads, this is for the drawer handle;
- Pearl half beads;
- Curb hole punch;
- Double-sided tape, glue stick, glue with “scotch effect”;
- White satin ribbon 25 mm wide;
- Scissors, pencil, heat gun and ruler.
We place the diagram in front of us, carefully look at the inscriptions and cut out the corresponding blanks. What and how much is needed is also written on the diagram, so we will measure and cut everything in centimeters.
First, cut out all the blanks from red cardboard. We will have five of them: for the postcard, for the box, for the base of the box and two for the box itself.
We crease the base of the box and the box itself according to the diagram (draw bend lines), cut off the excess and glue it with a glue stick. We also fold the card in half. Cut out two squares from scrap paper.
We glue the scrap blanks onto cardboard, using double-sided tape. We glue the cuttings onto two blanks. Inscription and pictures, as well as on a strip of tape. We sew everything glued on by machine. We glue a white square inside the postcard and stitch it from the inside, connecting the postcard with a large square, as if we were sewing one on top of the other.
We glue the box together and thread a pendant onto one side of the brads; this will be a handle for easy opening. Inside the box we make a strip with a hole punch and glue it along the edges. Now we assemble and glue the box with glue.
It turns out we have such a box.
Tie a bow and the box is ready. You can invest something beautiful or money in it and congratulate. Thanks for your attention and good luck!
