Tutorial for Tissue Box Cover with Cricut Craft Room

Good Morning!

Today's project is a rerun... I have made many of theses before, but this time I created a cut file for the Cricut Craft Room. I will share it with anyone who asks :)

First I am showing you the screen shots for the files, then there will be some photos of the assembly.

The 2 pieces that make the box

The box top

Decorative paper for the sides

Decorative paper for the top

Now for the assembly...

Sides for the box

Add adhesive to the end that is scored at 1/2 inch

Attach to the second side piece on the unscored end

Add adhesive to the remaining 1/2 inch end and complete the box

Score the box top at one inch on all sides

Fold tabs in and glue to the inside, I found that this comes out

better if I use a strong adhesive like the red tape.

Glue the top to the bottom

And decorate ...

That's all there is to it!

I used Close To My Heart Chantilly Papers - X7163B

The flowers and ribbons are from my 'collection'

The navy blue pieces on the bottom corner were cut with a punch.

The CCR file uses Cricut Craft Room Basic - comes free with Craft Room

and Close To My Heart Artiste cartridge.

I cut it out using the Cricut Expression 2

Treat Holder Tutorial Using Cricut Craft Room and Expression

This mornings project is an easy treat holder that I made with a cut file for CCR that uses the free images that come with the Cricut Craft Room.

I have given the card stock size if you would rather cut it with using the Cricut and the scoring lines.

This one was cut by hand, with the corners rounded

This one was cut with the CCR file.

The papers for both are Close To My Heart - Chantilly X7163B

and the stamp is from a set that came with my Consultant Kit

The only thing missing for this project is the treats.... Not found in my house unless the grand kids are here :)

Now for the

Special Offer !!
