Diamond shaped gift box packaging

I’ve been having some fun of late creating packaging and gift boxes. This diamond-shaped one is one of my favourites (second only to my teacups). They’d make really cute packaging for party favours, for small gifts or just as decoration.

They’re really easy to put together once you know how and can be printed on a standard A4 piece of card stock. I’ve left the template blank so that you can customise and decorate it to your heart’s content! Following is the tutorial.

    Hi, can you please check the template. The one I opened had several layers of details e.g two sizes of template and heavy vertical black lines

      I’ve downloaded it and checked it on both my computers and they turn out perfectly. What software are you using to open the file? It will need to be opened with Adobe Acrobat. You can download their free reader software here (http://get.adobe.com/reader/)

    Oh hey! I know what’s going on! I had to open the file in Adobe Illustrator and check the right layers cause they are all scrambled and visible so the PDF file has that “wrong” look!

    I love these little boxes. Where do I find the template? Is it not available anymore?
    Thanks!

    You need to actually download the template before printing the PDF not from the initial template that is shown.

    Perfect cut file! I used a paper with bling, came out very cool and attractive. Thank you.

    p.s. I hope there’s other diamond shape like if it was a little elongated.
