I was recently asked whether I could design a little favour box in the shape of a diamond 💎 and this is what I came up with!
I’m so pleased with how it’s turned out! I’ve made it easy to open and there’s plenty of room inside for some sweet treats! It would work perfectly for wedding favours or as a cute gift box for Valentine’s day!
You can find the template for this box in my Etsy shop, available as an SVG cut file as well as a printable PDF if you prefer to cut out by hand.
To make one, you will need:
* Diamond Gem Box template (SVG and PDF available)
* Computer and printer to print the PDF template and instructions
* Digital cutting machine
* Cardstock (220-250gsm / 80-92lb recommended)
* Craft glue / double-sided tape
If you are not using a cutting machine you will also need:
* Craft knife / scissors
* Scoring tool
* Ruler
Watch my video tutorial below, showing how to assemble the diamond box.
TIP: try experimenting with different types and textures of cardstock to see which works best for you. This smooth mirror card one is stunning, but the ruby glitter card one is definitely my favourite!
I hope that I have inspired you to create your own little diamond boxes using my template and I can’t wait to see what you use them for! 💎
