I wanted to make a small box for a child - this is about 4" x 4" square and 2.5" depth.
The instructions and template can be found at Stempeleinmaleins - Gift Box.
As I wanted it for a little boy I used the blue cardstock and Basic Grey's Out of Print papers.

The box opens up - not filled as yet, but is perfect for a small gift.
