All of the SU Bigz XL dies I have actually make only small boxes and sometimes one needs a larger gift box. I was rather pleased when I found a local online store selling this Sizzix Box Die.
When it arrived I cut out what I thought was the box and sat looking at it wondering how on earth I could make a box out of a two sided piece of cardstock. There were no instructions or pictures (I do well with those) on the die or on any part of the packaging which is a little stupid on the manufacturer's part. Anyway, I wondered if I cut out another one would it work. Well, it did and once I had fathomed it out it was relatively simple to put together. The box is large and measures 92 mm height, width and length (it is square shaped). I found a beautiful candle to put into it for a gift.
The blue paper is from a pad in my stash, the 'Handle with care' is from a SU set and the rosette is a Tim Holtz die which I had also just received.
