Style it in black and white



  1. Create without colouring by painting
    a canvas with acrylic craft paint. Cut out
    design and glue onto foam board. Now
    cut out design on board. Glue a piece of
    white card onto centre of canvas. Glue a
    contrasting-colour card onto centre of white.
    Glue design to centre of card. Another cool
    variation: cut the silhouette of a design in
    a rectangle of red card, layer it and frame it.

    make valley (indicated by dashed lines )
    and mountain (interrupted lines) folds,
    and assemble your box. To complete, slot
