As promised, here is the 2nd in my kawaii Halloween series. This time a cute little kawaii Frankenstein to go along with kawaii Ghosty! They make really cute little gift boxes.
The boxes go together just like Kawaii Ghosty but are a bit simpler as they’re a traditional rectangle.
You’ll need 3 pieces of A4 card stock, the thickest you can get through your printer (I used 200 gsm) and your choice of adhesive (I used a Pritt stick)
Then just print and cut out each of the pieces in the PDF template at the bottom of this post. Scoring and/or folding along the dotted lines.
Then ensuring you’ve matched the colours, put together the two halves to the internal box. On the blue box, place the coloured side of the template facing out, this will ensure you see the blue on the outside of the finished package.
You should have two box halves as shown below. The pink/ purple is smaller and will slide inside the blue/green.
Then it’s just a matter of glueing the top of each box to the back of each Frankenstein, doing your best to align in the centre. But don’t worry about it too much. They’ll still stand up quite well if you’re a little off!
And here’s your finished package!
The final box size is 130mm x 127mm and his internal box is 115mm high x 80 mm wide x 40mm deep. To make a smaller box, just scale the PDF template down when you print it, ensuring that each page is scaled down the same percentage.
I hope you have a fantastic Halloween! We’re heading to our first pumpkin carving on Sunday, wish me luck? I’ve never carved a pumpkin before!
