Directions:

 1. Cut three of the bottom parts of the Stampin' Up Matchbox die in any solid color card stock.

2. Crease all score lines on all three boxes with a bone. Make sure you crease well.

3. Fold in the sides first and then the top and bottom.  No need to add adhesive.  The box will stay in place without adhesive, love it.

4. Cut three strips of heavy designer paper (DSP) at 3" by 6 1/2" and using the Matchbox die cut the covers for the matchbox.  Crease all three pieces well with the bone.

5. Add red sticky tape to the smaller end of this strip and assemble all three covers.  Insert the bottom box into each of the covers to form the matchbox.

6.  Cut another piece of coordinating DSP at 2 3/4" by 4 1/2".  Adhere a 20" piece of ribbon to the back of the  DSP.  

7.   Adhere red sticky tape to each of the boxes on one side. Then center the three boxes on top of the ribbon and wrap the DSP around all three boxes.

8.  Tie a pretty bow and now you're ready to embellish, embellish and decorate the entire Matchbox Mini Scrapbook to your liking.
