Triangle Explosion Book

This is a project  using my Scor-pal, 3 pieces of cardstock and assorted pattern papers from Fancy Pants Designs.

To begin, prepare your cardstock as follows:

1 piece of cardstock is 12" x 12" - score at 4" and 8", turning the paper and scoring again 4" and 8", creating 9 equal sized squares.
Cut 1 piece of cardstock 10 1/4" x 10 1/4"  and score at 3 1/2" and 6 1/2", turning the paper and scoring again at 3 1/2" and 6 1/2", creating 9 equal sized squares.
Cut 1 piece of cardstock 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 2 3/4" and 5 3/4", turning the paper and scoring again at 2 3/4" and 5 3/4, creating 9 equal sized squares.

Cut along the score lines and remove the corner pieces.  Your three pieces of cardstock should look like a "t"

Fold each piece along the scored lines.

To form the triangle, cut each piece on the diagonal.  Find the center of each edge and cut to the score lines.

Add Scor-Tape to the center of each piece and assemble together to form one unit.

Using assorted papers from Fancy Pants Designs - The Good Life Collection - cut pattern paper to fit each triangle.

Layer 1 - cut 8 pieces, each 3 3/4" x 3 3/4".

Layer 2 - cut 8 pieces, each 3 1/4" x 3 1/4".

Layer 3 - cut 8 pieces, each 2 3/4" x 2 3/4".

To finish the inside, add a 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" square to the base.

Decorate as desired.  I added stamps around my box.

Punch holes in the tops of each point and thread ribbon through the holes. 

Fill the box with candy or other little treats and pull the ribbon together to close.

This is the perfect item to put in the Christmas tree since it doesn't weigh very much, or even use as a place setting on the dining room table.
