  1. Cut the design pieces.
  2. Fold all score lines. Turn the box base over (pretty side down)
  3. Apply glue to the center panel of the top box section.
  4. Attach the top of the bottom box section centering it and secure into place.
  5. Apply glue to the top side tabs and secure them to the box panels below them.
  6. Apply glue to the bottom side tabs and secure them to the box panel above them.
  7. You should have a box shape:)
  8. Apply glue to the bottom creased edge on one of the smaller heart shapes. I used hot glue which is messy…but dries quicker and helps if you have a short attention span;) Center it on top of one of the larger heart shapes and secure into place.
  9. This is what your heart should look like.
  10. Repeat for all of the heart pairs. Apply glue to the bottom creased edge of one of your combined heart shapes.

  14. Center and secure the backside of the other flower base creating a two sided flower.
  15. Slide the tab of the combined flower section into the top slot on the box top.
  16. Separate the tab on the inside of the box and apply glue to the top of each tab.
