Instructions in 6 steps You can use it to wrap your gifts in an original way. When the intended recipient of the gift open the explosion box, their gift appears suddenly from the box. And this is how it works:
1

Step 1

Cut the ivory Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 30 × 30 cm. Then measure out the three lateral parts 10 cm each. Mark the four outer lateral parts diagonally with a pencil and cut them out for the two side pockets. The lateral parts and the bottom of the box are ideally folded with a burnishing bone and ruler so that the box can fold apart. The side pockets have to be affixed with the special double-sided adhesive tape.

Step 2

Inner side: Cut the d.turquoise Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 9.6 × 9.6 cm for the bottom and the two lateral parts. For the two side pockets, cut the mint Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 9 × 9 cm. If desired, these can be labeled with a personal text. For the centre (bottom), cut the ivory Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 8 × 8 cm.

Step 3

The inner gift box is made of the d.turquoise Double Dot scrapbooking paper with dimensions of 18 × 18 cm. The dashed areas are marked and folded with a pencil.

Tip: If you rotate the sheet clockwise while measuring, anything to be marked won’t be forgotten.

Step 4

Then fold the box and decorate it with the Washi tape. The outer flaps are bent inwards so that the box can be glued on with the special double-sided adhesive tape and thus fixed in the box. Punch some blossoms out with the motif-puncher Daisy. Affix the rhinestones and the blossoms on the gift and the side pockets by means of the paper glue. For the stamp impression, cut the d.turquoise Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 6.7 × 9.5 cm, stamp the motif and stick it on.

Step 5

For the lid, cut the d.turquoise Double Dot scrapbooking paper to a size of 14.5 × 14.5 cm and fold it at the indicated spots according to the cut-sheet. The flaps have to be affixed with the special double-sided adhesive tape. Cut about 9.5 cm from the white Glitter tape and cover one side of the lid with it. Make the 3 other sides of the lid in the same way.

Step 6

Cut a cutting of 8 × 8 cm out of the ivory Double Dot scrapbooking paper. For the bow, cut 25 × 1.5 cm out of the d.turquoise Double Dot scrapbooking paper. You will need 11 × 1.5 cm of the latter for the ribbon of the bow. Put the bow in the middle and fold the ribbon over the ends at about 1 cm and stick these ends slightly on the rear side. Now glue the ivory Double Dot scrapbooking paper with the bow on the lid. Close the box with the lid.
