After my recent Shadow Box Photo Frame tutorial I received lots of lovely comments and a few requesting for a matching Gift Box to present the frames in.

This was a great idea and finishes off these lovely gifts perfectly.

To make these lovely boxes with matching belly band you will need…

1 piece of Kraft Card for the lid 7.13/16 x 9.13/16

Score along the 7.13/16 side at 1.1/4 then pull the card out slightly and score at 6.5/8

Score along the 9.13/16 side at 1.1/4 then pull the card out slightly and score at 8.5/8

1 piece of Kraft card for the base 10.1/4 x 8.1/4

Score along the 8.1/4 side at 1.1/2 and 6.3/4

Score along the 10.1/4 side at 1.1/2 and 8.3/4

Patterned paper to decorate the lid 5 x 7.1/8

Belly band 1 x 11.5/8 or 11 will be fine if your using letter paper size.

Rectangle nest of dies and sentiment of your choice.

Ribbon optional.

Check out my full tutorial below to see how I made it.

I’m really pleased with how these look and think they make perfect complete gifts now.

Thank you everyone for all your requests to make these.

Happy crafting
