Trim the 4 corners off at the diagonal as shown
Add Sticky Strip to the corners and fold it up into a box.
Trimming the corners on the diagonal makes for smooth clean
box corners and eliminates those nasty little edges that sit
above the box sometimes.

Insert the back piece into the box bottom, peel the Sticky
Strip and press together. You can put it on the outside too if
you want, we will be covering it up with DSP later.
Now the bottom suitcase in the trio is made, the rest is
decorating it to look like a real suitcase. I covered mine with
cardstock and DSP, added a decorative trim strip around the
lid, corner decorations, a ribbon handle and straps around the
entire suitcase.

Punch four 1-1/4 circles to make the corners of the suitcase.
Method: Fold circle in half one direction to score it, unfold
and fold in half the other direction to score it. Start to foldthe score lines in on each other on one wedge making two pie
shaped pieces in that area as shown in the second circle. Trim
one of those segments out of there and use the remaining
segment to place the adhesive. Tuck that little flap
underneath and seal to create a three sided circle. Set aside.
Cut three strips of Basic Black cardstock for the trim strip on
the lid. One is 1/2 x 8-1/8 and two are 1/2 x 7. Paper
pierce along one edge and use the Uni-Ball White Gel Pen to
connect the dots and create the look of stitching. Set aside.

Peel and stick magnets to the straps. This is how you will open
and close this suitcase.
Here is a photo of the Basic Gray magnets I used but I think
they have new packaging now so it may not look like this.

Do this for the top and bottom piece, front corners ONLY.
Attach the two lengths of long cardstock for the box
bottom/side with Sticky Strip, overlap by about 1/2. Cut
1/2 piece out of the under piece so it isnt so bulky when
attaching.

Attach Sticky Strip around the box bottom piece in three
separate strips. Lay one down in the front almost corner to
corner. Then place one from the corner to the back of the
box on each side. Mark the middle of the front with a pencil.
Peel the Sticky Strip from the front edge. Fold the long
piece on the score line as you will be attaching the 1/2 edge
to the box. Find the mark you made for the center and line it
up with the center of where you pieced the two pieces

together. Carefully lay that down all along the front, lining it
up right along the edge. Now the center is attached and you
should have long pieces hanging off each side that are
unattached.-It looks intimidating but it really is pretty straight forward,
just trust me!
-Try to keep it as straight up and down as possible with little
