L’auteur suggère d’utiliser un outil special (“bone folder”) pour marquer les plis. Pour le papier épais ou le carton, j’utilise simplement une roulette à pizza, c’est très efficace et ça évite d’écorcher le carton et des laisser des marques.
Si vous souhaitez diminuer ou augmenter le taille des modèles, il suffit de les photocopier à la dimension désirée.
J’ai personnellemment essayé quelques modèles et le résultat est très satisfaisant. Sur la photo, on peut voir une boîte ‘puffy’, faite à partir d’une page de vieux livre pour enfant.
Une belle façon de personnaliser nos cadeaux et de réduire notre consommation!

The author recommend to use a special tool (bone folder) to score fold lines. For thick paper and cardboard I simply use a pizza cutter, it’s very effective and avoid damaging cardboard and leaving marks.
If you want to increase or decrease the size of templates, you just need to use a photocopier and resize them as you wish.
I personally tried a couple of the available templates and the result was very satisfying. On the photo you can see a puffy box, made from a page of vintage children book.
A nice way to personalize our gifts and reduce our consumption!
Pack it up!Making our own custom cards and boxes can be very easy when we have a template at hand. I just discovered, some time ago, a site where you can find all kinds of original boxes, envelopes and cards templates.
