Card Giftbox Generator

Create custom slide-out gift card boxes for any occasion in seconds. Start from a holiday template, edit the text, and drop in decorative elements — then preview in 3D and export production-ready laser files with cut and engrave layers already separated.

How It Works

An easy 3-step guide to design your custom gift card box

01

Select a Holiday Template

Open the Templates panel and pick your Holiday — Birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, Mother's Day, or Wedding. One click loads the full slide-box design onto the canvas, ready for you to make your own.

02

Customize & Personalize

Use the Text panel to add your message and pick from 30+ fonts, then open Elements to drop in icons like hearts, flowers, stars, and snowflakes. On the right, set your card size, drawer fit, and material to make the design your own.

03

Preview and Export

Click "3D" to rotate your box, then drag the Slide and Explode controls to watch the drawer glide open and see how the layers fit together. When it looks right, hit "Export" for a production-ready file — cut and engrave lines already on separate layers.

Choosing the Right Material for Your Project

Ready-to-Use Holiday Templates

No need to start from scratch! Choose from ready-made templates for Birthday, Christmas, Wedding, Mother's and Father's Day, and more. Pick a template and swap the text — no laying out wording, positioning decorations, or aligning everything by hand. Your design is ready to list in minutes, all year round, without buying a new design pack each time.

Smart Structure: Fits Any Material Thickness

A slide box isn't just a flat shape — the rails, slot sizes, and layer tolerances all have to be calculated, and they break the moment you change material. Just enter your card size and pick your board, and the tool works out the rails, slot fit, and thickness compensation for you — so the box slides smoothly and closes snug, never loose or jammed. Switch from 3mm to 5mm and it recalculates on its own, no tolerance math.

Cut & Engrave Lines, Auto-Separated

One export gives you everything ready to run: the cut outlines and the engraved text and decorations come on separate layers in a single file. Drop it straight onto your laser and start — no reopening it in Adobe Illustrator or AutoCAD to separate cut from engrave lines or sort layers by hand. The tedious prep is already done for you.

Pick a template, swap in the occasion and message, and export a ready-to-cut file — what used to be hours of manual design now takes minutes. Roll out a fresh SKU for every holiday on the calendar and keep your shop stocked all year, without piling on more design work.
