All photos will contained detailed instructions. You will be able to design your own box for any occasion. 

• Start by creating a rectangle. 
  • For this design I used a 5"x6". You will have to click the aspect ratio lock icon to get these exact dimensions.
• Add another rectangle and size it to 4" x 2". 
  • Again, you will have to click on the aspect lock icon to get these dimensions.
• Now add the text you would like.
  • You will need to add one word at a time so it can be stretched out over the entire width of the card.
  • The next word will need to go underneath the first word. 
  • Make sure the sides are overlapping all the sides of the bigger rectangle.
  • You may need to adjust the spacing of the letters. You can do that by clicking on text, on the right side panel there is a spacing box that says 0, you can adjust it with the arrows to the left of the box. Please see picture 4
  • Do this is with all the words you want on the card
• Now, one at a time, select on word and the big rectangle and under combine click the subtract icon.
  • Do this to each word and rectangle one at a time.
  • When done you should only have one object. See Picture #7
• Next, we need to make a frame around the object. Picture #8 
  • You can do an outline but it won't have straight edges. 
  • So create another rectangle around the one with your text. 
  • You want the new rectangle to be bigger.
  • Now Select both rectangle and align them. Horizontally and Vertically. Picture #9
• Now add another rectangle with the dimensions of 3.36" w X 2.15" h Picture #10
  • Don't forget to click the lock aspect ratio icon on the ride side panel
• You should have 3 objects. Make a copy of the rectangle that is 4" x 2"
• Picture #11
  • The last rectangle we created needs to be moved into one of the two identical ones.
  • It needs to be sticking out a little bit so that there is a border around it. 
  • Next we need to select both of them and under combine, click subtract.
• You should be left with 3 objects. See Picture #12
• Make another copy of the 4" x 2" rectangle
  • Right click, copy, paste
• Now, make a copy of the outer box of the larger rectangle. See Picture #4
  • This will be our backer that will go behind the cut out that we will glue our cardstock to.
• Make a smaller rectangle.
  • Use the trim looking piece as a guide, We don't want it to be longer than this piece. We need. Please see Picture #16 as a guide. 
• You should be left with only 6 objects now. 
• Select all objects and make sure they are set to “Cut”

Make sure all your objects that need to be cut are set to cut

You can also add an engraving to customize this gift.

• Use the backer board to cut your cardstock to size.
  • Glue the cardstock to the backer board
• Glue the rectangle trim to on of the rectangles.
  • then glue the other rectangle on top of the trim so you have a box with a small opening.
  • glue the smallest rectangle to right back side the box that doesnt have your engraving on the front. Make sure its alight to the top of the box.
• Next glue the front cut out to the cardstock backer board
• Finally step will be to glue the gift card box to the frame and backer board
  • You will want to place it on the left hand corner of the frame where the two corners meet. 
  • Don't make it flush, it will sit in the middle of the frame so there will be a little frame showing. 
  • And the small piece on the back will be they only part that needs glue so that it will be able to be glued to the backer board.
• Now grab a gift card and gift away!
