I have selected the Abstract Beauty Suite to create my project for the special women in my life. The 4" x 6" paper is gorgeous, with one side with foil and the opposite side a less flashy design. But the cards needed a special decorated box. I took inspiration from Lori Pinto but experimented with the measurements to allow the 4"x 6" Abstract Beauty Cards to fit. Here are the directions:
Cut Pieces
8-3/4" x 12" Night of Navy
2-5/8 x 12" Night of Navy (2)
Artistic Die in Gold Metallic Specialty Paper
Score:
On the short end, score at 1-1/4" and 7-3/4"
On the long edge, score at 1", 2-1/4". 6-1/2", and 7-3/4"
Using your bone folder, burnish all the score lines. Cut up to the 1-1/4" line and as noted in the pictures. Create your box and add the Abstract Beauty DSP to the front panel.
Close the box with a belly band and decorate with the Gold Metallic die and Adhesive Backed Hexagons. Here is one of the cards that will go in the box.
