  Step 1

  First you will need to grab the template. I got this template from the following site: http://www.ruthannzaroff.com/mirkwooddesigns/puffy.htm

  I cut out the template and traced it on the back side of my cardstock. You'll need to use a heavier cardstock when making this box.

• 

  Step 2

  Next, cut out the design you traced on your cardstock.

• 

  Step 3

  Now it's time to score the dotted lines from the template on your cardstock. This was the tricky part for me. To make sure I accurately traced the curved lines I placed the template over my cardstock and traced the dotted lines with my scoring tool (I used a Phillip's Head Screwdriver). This left a faint indention on my cardstock which I was able to go back over with my scoring tool. This step is important because the scoring makes it easier to fold the box correctly.

• 

  Step 4

  Now it's time to start folding where you scored.

• 

  Step 5

  Now put glue on the tab shown in this picture. Fold the other side over and adhere the glued tab to it.

  Let it dry. I placed mine inside a book to ensure that the tab stayed in place while it was drying.

• 

  Step 6

  Once the glue has dried, you can "assemble" your box. Just fold the ends toward the inside of the box as shown.

• 

  Step 7

  And you're done!

  This box can be used to package party favors or any small gift.

  HAPPY FOLDING!!!
