I created a small Impossible Box that I found from Craft N Canvas in 2019. I’ve been trying to look back through my “recipe patterns” and finding some gems. I recently needed these for a gift but wanted to create a larger version and added a fun little matching 3″ x 3″ card.
Measurement
Here is a PDF for the Impossible Boxes Large and Small.
This is written on the PDF but I want to emphasis adding a 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″ insert inside the box to make the box stronger. You also need to add it to the bottom of the box to give it a nice finish look but also to cover up the small hole. Until I figure out the correct size to make the hole disappear, this is my fix for now but I actually really like the look of the solid piece on the bottom. You could shorten the box up some but I wanted the 4″ x 4″ size box.
When doing 3D projects, I highly recommend having a Simply Score Board.
If you are not familiar with the Impossible Box, the lid is attached and the box opens from the top.
Here is a diagram of what the box should look like when you are done scoring and cutting. The pink is the smaller box.
Add your DSP and layered papers.
