Altered box

Happy Friday! I have a project to show you today that uses one of the many empty Papertrey Ink boxes I have stashed in my office. I've used these boxes before to house notecards, etc. but decided I wanted to do something different on the top instead of wrapping a band of cardstock around it. (Not that there's anything wrong with that...) I made a cap for the top that slides right off when the ribbon is untied. I printed a Digiment on Vellum and overlayed it across the stamped image. I kept this box super simple and the candy hides the adhesive on the back of the label.

To make the cap, you need a piece of cardstock 5.5 x 8.25. Score the long end at 1" on both ends and score the short side at 2" and 3". Here's a quick visual on how to score. You will have to cut at the 2 and 3 score lines up to the 1" score line on the 8 1/4 length ends in order to put it together. Does that make sense? I'm no Lauren Meader *sigh* I should have made the score lines look different but I don't know how yet. I'm teaching myself how to do this stuff.

Thanks for stopping by!
