3 Tiny Boxes - Update: cut files attached

Post by ptpulley »

I have a Cricut personal and was hoping to be able to make a box large enough for a gift card. I found some images of some small boxes on a site called A Little Hut, and used that idea to make the jeep box. It's just big enough for a gift card to stand diagonally inside.

I had found the panther pieced file at this site: http://nancyscreativepapercrafts.blogsp ... -results=7
and I thought he might be cute on a box. The pieces are very tiny, but I think he looks cute.

That inspired me to create a pieced poinsettia to use on a little box. It's a little funky where the two sides fit together, but I think it looks okay.

I have been unable to post my cut files, and have asked support for help. Haven't heard back yet, but when I do, I will share the files.

ETA: It looks like I forgot to say that I had to make the bottom flaps of these boxes too short to get them to fit on the small Cricut mat. I just cut a small rectangle and glue it inside or outside the bottom. If you have a bigger machine, you could just add onto the flaps to make them longer.

These are cute boxes, loved the one with the poinsettia on top. Not sure why you can't post scut files. Can you tell us what is happening when you try to upload them and make we can help you out?

I tried to post a week or so ago and had the same problem. I get a message that says my files have been blocked as a possible vector attack file. I am using Windows Vista and SCAL2. I have sent messages to Craft Edge twice using the support form that someone directed me to, but I have not gotten a response. :?
I use a BabyBug, SCAL2.

These are just the cutest boxes EVER!!! Thanks for posting the pictures!!!
I have had the same problem with posting .scut2 files...not sure why it is happening again...as it has happened before many months ago...what is up with that, I do not know...but, what I did was to use FILE and EXPORT(to my desktop)and then the .scut2 file becomes an .svg...and the forum still will post those.

Thanks again for showing your project...AWESOME!!!
