Amuse Studio Stationery Box

Stationery Box Template

The stationery gift box ...It's made from Clear Cardstock and lined with French Roast Woodgrain! I love, love, love that you can make this look any way you want just by changing up the lining!  Here's a couple of tips:

Amuse Studio Clear Cardstock is super sturdy (why it's SO great for card bases and projects like this). Because of this, you should go over your scoreline multiple times, using more pressure than normal cardstock.  Super Stick Tape is used to adhere the box sides together. 

The lining is cut to match the dimensions of the box, minus the sides - so 5.75 x 10.25. For an easy fit, score it just a smidge UNDER the scoring dimensions for the box. (If your lining peeks over the top at all, just trim!) The lining isn't adhered in any way.
