Folding Paper for a Scored Valentine's Day Box

Video Transcript

"Alright. We've done our stamping and I've cut out my heart. I have just black magic Sharpie here. I'm going to be giving this package a goodies to Nate, so I'll put Nate's name right here. Then I'm going to take a piece of cord, some gold cord that I have. I need about 3-4 inches. I'm going to take and I'm going to thread that through that hole that I just punched with a 1/16 inch punch. Sometimes your hand shake, but that's okay. I'm just going to pull it through. Go ahead and tie a knot at the top and just trim that. We'll attach that later to the bow when we put the box together. We're just going to set that aside. Now that we have our box all stamped, all scored, and all cut, what we're going to do now is fold on all those fold lines. I'm going to take my folder and make all of these lines nice and crisp. This way your box will stand up really good. Just make sure they're all folded. Once you get all that folded, I wanted these edges on my box to be rounded, so I'm going to take my corner rounding punch. Whenever you use your punches, you always want to have kind of the bottom of the punch facing you. That way you can see where you're putting the paper and what you're cutting. I'm just going to give a snip there and a snip there. Now I have a nice rounded corner for my box. To adhere this, I want a really strong adhesive, so I'm going to be using sticky strip. I'll show you how to do that in the next step. "
