3 Tiny Boxes - Update: cut files attached
Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2011 6:50 pm
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.
