Baci Box

Hi everyone, sharing a little gift box that holds three Baci chocolates and a matching card.


The Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper was perfect for this project as it matched the blue and silver wrapping on the chocolates.

The card measurements are in metric and the Baci box measurements are in imperial as I found it easier to make the box using imperial.

To make the card:

Measurements

Cut a piece of A4 Night of Navy Cardstock in half lengthwise to create card base
Cut a piece of Whisper White Cardstock 10 cm x 14.3cm (for inside card)
Cut a piece of Whisper White Cardstock 9cm x 13.3cm
Cut a piece of Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper 8.5cm x 9.3cm

Technique

Fold card base in half.

Adhere the piece of Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper to the 9cm x 13.3cm Whisper White Cardstock piece.

Put a strip of Washi Tape across the card front where the patterned paper meets the Whisper White cardstock.

Stamp the sentiment in Night of Navy ink on the bottom of the panel for the card front.  Adhere this panel to the card front.

Cut out the flower and leaves using the Botanical Builder framelits and Whisper White cardstock, Night of Navy cardstock and Silver Foil Sheet and arrange in a bouquet on the card front.   Add a Rhinestone to the flower centre.

For the inside of the card put a strip of Washi Tape across the Whisper White piece for the inside of the card.  Adhere in place.

To make the box:


Measurements

Cut a piece of Night of Navy cardstock 4 1/16" x 5 9/16"
Cut a piece of Night of Navy cardstock 8 1/2" x 5 3/4"

Box Insert

Score the 81/2" x 5 3/4" piece of cardstock at 1" & 2 1/4" on all four sides.  Fold & burnish all score lines.

Cut as per template.


Punch a small hole using the 1/8" handheld circle punch on the square coloured red.  Thread a piece of looped ribbon through the hole and secure the ends with tape on the inside.

Put glue or double sided tape on the 4 tabs to be folded in to form the box.

Put glue or double sided tape on the inside of the 4 outer tabs, and fold over to reinforce the sides.

Cover

Score the 4 1/16" x 5 9/16" piece of cardstock on the long edge at 1/2", 1 3/4", 3 1/16" & 4 5/16".  Fold and burnish all score lines.

Add double sided tape to one edge and form the cover around the box insert to create the cover, making sure that it is not too tight as the box needs to be able to be pulled out with the ribbon pull.

Wrap

Cut a piece of patterned paper 4" x 5 9/16".  Score on the long edge at 7/16", 1 3/4", 3 1/16" & 4 5/16".  Put double sided tape on the cover and secure wrap around the box.  Decorate using the Botanical Builder Framelits, Whisper White cardstock, Night of Navy cardstock and Silver Foil Sheet.
