Flip Top Box Tutorial

Supplies:

• 2 - 8" x 8 1/2" pieces cardstock
• 1 - 4 1/2" x 6 piece cardstock
• 2 - 4 1/4" x 5 3/4" pieces DSP
• 2 - 1 3/4" x 5 3/4" pieces DSP
• 2 - 4 1/4" x 1 3/4" pieces DSP
• adhesive (I used Tombow Multi)
• 2 Jumbo Grommets
• Crop-A-Dile
• Ribbon

Score at 2" and 6 1/2".

Turn cardstock and score at 2".













On the 4 1/2" x 6" piece, score at 2" and 4". This piece is the lid of the box and will be adhered to the back of one of the box pieces.










Adhere the lid piece. The two box pieces fit together as shown. Glue one piece on the bottom and sides. Then, slide that into the other box.
FYI: I should have glued mine the opposite way, so the piece with the lid goes on the inside.














Add the DSP pieces, grommets, and ribbon. Decorate box. I used Velcro as a closure for the lid.

Also note my use of the Scor-Pal. I absolutely LOVE this tool. Anyone who knows me, knows how much I adore Stampin' Up products. This is probably the one non-SU product I use very frequently, as in with every card I make. It really does make scoring sooooo much easier. If you don't have one, I really suggest you at least look at their website.

Thanks so very much to LeeAnn for the original tutorial for this box.
