On the long sides of the cardstock, cut the score lines up to the point where they connect with the score lines from the short side.


3. Step 3

Prefold all your score lines.


4. Step 4

Apply Scor-Tape™ to each of the four outside corners. These are your glue tabs.

Peel off the paper lining of the Scor-Tape™ and fold in the glue tabs to create the bottom of your box.


6. Step 6

Stamp your 6 7/8" x 8 1/8" piece of cardstock if needed.

Scor the cardstock at 1".

10. Step 9 (Optional)

Punch each side with your Scallop Edge Punch. No need to punch the glue tabs.



11. Step 10

Cut down your glue tabs so they won't show under the scallops. Add Score-Tape™ to each of the four corners.
