Help making gift box

Post by annell »

Hi guys, I am not capable of making boxes as yet. I want to make one likes what's found here. http://weddingfavorsclub.com/product.ph ... 15.....The sea shell aspect of it I know how to make, but not the "box part" of it. Can anyone direct me how to?

Thanks

I made the box and what I did was make a shell, dupe it, add a rectangle between the two shells, and union them together. The width of the rect is the equivalent to the depth you want the box, i.e., if you want the box to be 1.5" wide, that is also the size of the rectangle and the length should not exceed the height of the shell.

Heather,

Very nice. What folder did you use to emboss? Thanks for sharing.

I used a Sizzix embossing folder from the Flourishes and Vines 2 pack. : )

I surely am thrilled. Thank you both. I am going to try my hand at creating it from scratch also.
