#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Fold Flat Book Box Tutorial using All My Love DSP
Oh I had the MOST fun coming up with this project (and quite possibly the most challenging time too!). I had a project in my head and I eventually got it down on cardstock for you, with a few hiccups along the way. But that’s my ‘job’. To do the hardwork so you don’t have to!
The measurements are long, there are a lot of them, but it’s worth every moment and once you’ve got them set, the rest is easy.
I decided to keep the finish simple, I wanted to show you just how beautiful our papers are and that they don’t always need anything extra on top.
And what would you put inside? Silky smooth scarf, delicate hankies, pens and pencils, sweeties, loads of goodies!
Each ‘box’ half finishes up at 1/2 x 2-1/8 x 10″ (1.5 x 5 x 25cm) so they’re quite shallow, though reasonably wide and definitely long.
So please, I’d love for you to have a go of making one of these. And let me know if you do!

Gorgeous box Sam. That is a gift in itself.
That is so nice thank you! x
This may sound like a dumb question, but, it can make a difference! What size ball do you use when you score with your Take Your Pick Tool? I would think we would need to use the same size as you do, for our projects to come ut as nicely as your’s do! I love these boxes! I haven’t planned what to put in my yet, but, I will! Thank you so much for sharing your projects with us! We always love them!
Lovely. Box what a great idea , I really don’t no we’re all your ideas come from ,But I think we all love them ,thanks Sam X
Thankyou! x
Oh I do love this project. Love everything about it. I think this would be a great way to give someone a gift of some drawing or colored pencils. Oh or honey sticks, my daughter loves them. Or candy sticks. Lots of fun things could be put in this box. Thanks for another fun project and video. This has to be one of my favorites!
Thank you for all of the great ideas Kristie! x
Hi, I was looking for a box like this for chopsticks. How would I make just one side.
