3D Pentagon Box Card
Photographs from the Community (1)
For this papercraft keepsake I decided to use plain, 300gsm white cardstock, linen textured and pearlescent lilac 250gsm cardstock, and 250gsm linen textured cream cardstock. I cut out all th epieces from the relevant cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo. I then used a ball tool to shape the rose petals before twisting them into a spiral to form the roses - 5 cream for inside and 6 white for the outside. I used 1mm deep, double sided, foam tape to attach the diamond shaped layers together and to attach the first 5 inside the 5 triangular aperature boxes. I didn't attach the roses until the end to allow me to have room to manipulate the boxes as I stuck the sides, tops and bottoms together, gluing these in place using quick grab wet glue. Once all five boxes were in the correct shape I layed a ribbon down over the outside wrap piece and used the same glue as previously to stick the triangular boxes in place. I then decided that I wanted to have an area to put a greeting so decided to create two pentagon pieces, one white the same size as the pentagon box, and one from the lilac cardstock and made a little larger than the box. These were attached to the central triangular box at the top and the bottom. I attached the diamonds to the outside of the box, and the top, again using the foam tape. I finished off by using the wet glue to attach the roses all over and then embelishing with white peeloffs. I haven't put the greeting on yet, as I forgot to cut it out when I cut out all the pentagon box pieces, but it will go on the panel I attached to the bottom so that it is visible when the box is opened, but not when it's closed.
An absolutely stunning looking creation. I'm so pleased with how mine turned out.
