Start by cutting two 6″ x 6″ panels of white card stock. On one of them take 1/8″ or less off two of the sides. This is your base and will help the lid slide over easier.
Score at 1 1/2″ on all 4 sides of both pieces. Set lid aside (The panel that wasn’t trimmed down)
Cut the score lines on all 4 sides to form your tabs. (Base)
Cut notches in the tabs to assemble easier.
Trim approximately a 3″ x 3″ piece to fit in the center of your base. Stamp all over and glue your character on.
