Sushi Box Card

Hello Everyone! Today I want to share with you a Sushi Box Card that I made! (Created with patterns from TBD and SVGCF.)


My Brother's Birthday was coming up, and he loves everything Japan, Sushi, and Kawaii, so I thought that this Sushi Box Card would be perfect for him! To make the box card base I just welded basic shapes together in Design Space, and then attached score lines. After that I uploaded both of the patterns that I wanted to combine! I then sized the images to fit perfectly inside my box card. Next I cut out all of the pattern pieces in plain card stock and patterned paper with my Explore. After that I inked and chalked all of the paper pieces to create dimension. I then assembled everything and attached each character to my card base starting with the very back layer of my scene. I just worked my way towards the front creating my scene, and layering as I went. To finish my card I added the highlights with a white paint pen. Thank you so very much for stopping by today! Also thank you for your kind comments! I truly appreciate each and every one! I hope that you have a wonderful day!

    1. Thank you so very much!! :) Yes, the boxes I do are pretty small too. I make mine at 2.5" x 2.5" squares on each side of the box. I just do this size because I want the whole box card base to fit on one 12"x12" piece of card stock when I go to cut. You could make it larger though by switching to a 12"x24" cutting mat and paper. Then just re-size your file to fit those dimensions. I hope that helps! Have fun creating, and be prepared to make a bunch of them! They are a blast to make!! :)
