Poinsettia -3D Box of FlowersCompleted by Margaret McCartney

I printed the backing paper onto 300gsm card then fed it back through the printer to print the box on the reverse.

I scored and folded the box as expected. I printed the rest of the design onto good quality 255gsm photographic paper and cut it out.

I assembled the box using strong double sided tape. I added the back panel to the inside of the box using double sided tape. This hides the join. I added the crossbars using strong double sided tape. Using strips of acetate I attached the poinsettias to the crossbars using strong double sided tape.

I added the tops to the flaps using double sided tape. I added the greeting flap using double sided tape. I added the poinsettias to the flaps using thin foam tape. I added a cut out from a Signature Die that says 25th Dec using acetate. This gorgeous card will fold flat for posting.
