How to construct a toolbox card

1. Cut two body panels from the template, one with a drawer aperture. Score the dotted lines and cut the solid lines. Stick one body panel to the other with the small flap.

2. Cut a 22 x 17cm panel of kraft card and score at 4cm on each side. Make a snip at each corner and glue the flaps to make the drawer. Trim a panel for the drawer front.

3. Cut two 13 x 20.5cm panels of kraft cardstock. Score at 1.5cm and cut and glue the corners to construct two shallow trays. Line one tray with patterned paper.

4. Glue the second toolbox side together to form the main body. Invert one tray and glue into the base of the box, this will support the drawer. Secure the base flaps.
