- For best results, I recommend using 80 lb cardstock, but you could also use 65 lb cardstock.
- To add a pattern to the box, check out how to add a pattern in cricut design space.
Use a cutting machines such as Cricut or Silhouette cameo to cut the template or use scissors and craft knife to cut by hand:
CRICUT
- Upload the SVG file in Cricut Design space.
- If you have a scoring wheel or scoring stylus, make sure to use the SVG files with solid lines and remember to set up the score lines, before sending to cut. Check out my tutorial to learn how to set up score lines in cricut design design space.
Dashed lines are intended to be cut, so you don’t need any scoring tool.
SILHOUETTE CAMEO
- If you use a silhouette machine, make sure to upload the DXF file with dashed lines in silhouette studio.
BY HAND
- I recommend using the PDF file to cut by hand. The PDF file template fits in Letter size paper and A4 size paper.
Instructions:
1. Print all the pieces of the template on white paper.
2. Trace on cardstocks and acetate.
3. Score along the lines using a bone folder.
4. Cut the template with scissors and craft knife.
