Accordian top gift box

I watched an awesome YouTube video that showed how to make this accordion top gift box from altered SU! mini milk carton Sizzix die cut pieces. The video is by Stamping Maria, and I have pinned it here. After watching I made the first one from my copy of the mini milk carton on my Cricut. After I put it together I decided to alter my cut file so I did not have to cut off one side of the mini milk carton. I also added the decorative strip and the three Halloween cut outs to the new file.


This is what the box looks like when the top is opened. The box is approximately 3.5 x 1.5 when closed, I cut the Halloween shapes just a touch taller so they show over the top of the closed box.
The Cricut .cut file was created using George and also Paper Doll Dress Up, so if you would like this file I would be glad to send it out to you. Leave me a comment with your email address and I will send it out to you.

Find inspiration everywhere! Go... Create something fun & fabulous. Enjoy!
