Happy 80th Birthday Papa

My Step-dad "Papa" will be turning 80 on September 27th and I really wanted to make one of those box cards with Balloons and maybe a old looking golfer in the middle.  I have watched a few U-Tube videos on how to make it and gotten the dimensions (listed below), now I just have to get started. 

Card in a Box scoring, I must remember this!

• Finished Size when flat: 4-1/2 x 6 ".  Individual panels are 2-1/4 " wide.
• Cut Base: 9.5 x 6 "
• Score base: 2-1/4, 4-1/2, 6-3/4 & 9 " on long side. Score at 3-1/4 " on short side.
• Inserts: Cut at 3-1/4 " x 3/4 ". Score at 1/2 " from either end

Or per the awesome video by Deb Valder fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator (check out her video):

Box:

• Cut piece of cardstock at 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" (it's a half sheet of cardstock)
• Score this piece with the 5 1/2" side on top at 2 3/4"
• Turn and with the 8 1/2" piece on top you are going to score to the MIDDLE LINE (at the 2 3/4" mark) and cut the rest of the way down
• Score at 2" then Cut
• Score at 4" then Cut
• Score at 6" then Cut
• Score at 8" then Cut

That's it , now just glue together!

Insert:

• Cut a piece at 2 3/4" x 8"
• Score at 1/2", 2 1/2", 3", 5" 5 1/2" 7 1/2"
• Fold into a Z with a flare (the ends of the Z are going to be going the opposite way) and POP it into your box.

Layered Pieces:

• Back pieces – Cardstock 1 7/8" x 5 3/8" and the DSP is 1 3/4" x 5 1/4"
• Small Panels – Cardstock 1 7/8" x 2 5/8" and the DSP is 1 3/4" x 2 1/2"
• cut 6 for outside panels and 4 for inside
