EASY box envelope tutorial and card for SCACD

I dont often do tutorials as i am very intimidated by the talent of most of the girls out there, but i knocked this up together in literally four minutes that i thought i have GOTTA share this:
Tools: MS score board, score tool,  scissors, 12" X 12" cardstock


Line the corner of your 12" cardstock on the 6" mark and then line up the edge of the paper along the 6" at the top of the score board.

Score straight down along the 4 3/4"  mark at the top of the score board and then along the 51/2"mark, turn the paper and repeat on all four sides of the cardstock.
Once all four sides are scored you will see that there are interlocking score marks, cut those out as per the picture.

fold the sides along the score lines and adhere the bottom three together, leaving the top open to pop your card into.
How simple is this?  I only do simple, lol
Ok the card i made for the challenge on SCACD challenge: Friends with heart.  The stamp i used is called "Cherry Blossom", colored with my trusty copics, added a flourish down the side of my card, loads of flowers.  I used a NS die to cut my image, the paper is really old and i think its from Amercan crafts.

I do hope that you find this tutorial useful as if you are anything like me that has to add loads of drek to your cards, lol, what i mean is laods of flowers etc, then we all need boxes for them as appsoed to a regular envelope.
