Acetate Card Box Gift Wrap


Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project



Our Acetate Card Boxes (#144628) are handy to have around any time of the year. You can easily give handmade cards as gifts with these clear card boxes. Each box holds five to eight standard cards plus envelopes and you receive ten boxes in each package.

Today I want to show you how you can completely change the look and purpose with one cut!

Stampin' Up! Inspiration Project1. Cut Box

Cut un-assembled Acetate Card Box in half at 4" along the 8" side using scissors or a strong guillotine-style cutter.

2. Score Paper

Score 4-7/16" x 5" Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper at 2-7/8" and 3-1/2" along the 5" side. Fold the Brightly Gleaming Paper along the score lines so the star pattern is on the outside.

3. Build Box

Assemble one Acetate Card Box half. The finished box is open on one side. Add Glue Dots to back corners of largest scored section of Brightly Gleaming Paper, the side with stars. Slide into box, the smaller scored sections create the top flap.

8. Add Fasteners

Create a fastener to hold the box flap closed by adding a self-adhesive hook and loop closure. Adhere one half of the 1/2" hook and loop dot to the inside of the flap. I prefer using mini magnets - AVAILABLE HERE. Close flap to adhere the other half to the box front.

9. Fill Box

Fill the box with candy, gift cards, or other small gifts. Close flap and this beautiful box is sure to bring a bright, happy gleam to the eyes of whoever you give it to!
