here's another project i created at the last minute yesterday. little thoughts for my brother-in-law and my soon-to-be-daddy brother. i saw tie shaped gift cards at best buy and thought wrapping them up like a tie instead of just folding them up would be fun. so i created the box to fit the tie and added another quick and easy card. the a muse shirt and tie from the mainly men set was perfect--and notice the dotted line was still on my desk! here's a picture of the box open so you can see the "tie"...
each box is made with two pieces of 6.5 x 11 card stock--the bottom is scored and folded 1 inch on all sides and the top is scored and folded just a hair less than 1 inch to fit over the bottom without having to force it. the finished size is about 9 x 4.5 x 1 inch thick. i love last minute brain storms!!
