Wedge Mini Boxes Christmas and Hanukkah

Imitating take-away sandwich packaging, this triangular box hull 

is cut in one shape which bends to join at corners, 

forming a wedge compartment measuring approx. 

3.25” tall x 3.5” wide x 1.5” deep. 

Angled wall panel includes a rectangular window to provide 

sneak peek at loose goodies inside, 

with a “window” panel to cut from clear vinyl material. 

At apex, large tab extends upward, containing 

punch holes for ribbon tying. 

Accent shapes are included to decorate 

triangle wall panels and end upright panel. 

Customize the box for selected celebration:
with "cut & print” accent shapes:

 Christmas Dec. 25 ticket and “cool Yule” flag;

hanukkah shine bright” ticket and “shalom!” flag.

(Instructions begin with Christmas box.

Hanukkah box follows, beginning in Step 7.)

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify and cut the shapes

D spine box outer back accent panel

E dreidel base with stripes "place & trim" overlay

F print & cut "shalom!" flag phrase

G flag base

H hanukkah shine bright stamp print & cut

2. Set up the on-screen Cameo letter size page to

prepare the print & cut operation for stamp(s) and

printed words flag overlay, then print onto 65 lb. white card stock. 

Send printed page to the cutter. (The samples were prepared

at the same time, so both stamps are shown here as

the sheet exits the Cameo cutting machine.)

3. Prepare the flag accent unit by positioning and

attaching the print & cut overlay onto the base shape

with narrow margin on long straight top and bottom

edges, and at "forked tongue" end. Then assemble

the holly berries onto the leaf base. Finally . . .

. . . position the leaves unit onto the flag base.
