Use a tissue to wipe the ink off the embossed images. • Assemble the Box First, valley fold the top one inch panel forward, covering the top half of the cut out triangles. Then mountain fold (away from you) on each of the vertical folds, forming a squared tube. Use red liner tape on the 1/2” wide, 2 1/2” long tab to adhere the tab to the inside of the tube. Next, fold the bottom panels in to create a bottom for the card. Use red liner tape to adhere the two outermost panels to the two inner panels. Carefully push down the top of the box. As you do the top will reveal itself. Once the top is all the way down onto the rest of the box, use red liner tape to attach the small tab to the inside of the lid. Leave enough space when attaching the tab so that the “lid” to move easily up and down over the remainder of the box. Use a small piece of red liner tape to attach the ribbon to the side of the lid, simply as decoration. Tie the ribbon into a bow. The box is completed.
