Welcome to episode 2 of Gentleman Crafter TV!
In this episode, I will be sharing with you a technique for using the Hunkydory Adorable Scoreboard to make box frames of varying sizes and shapes. There is also a spreadsheet download that will help you calculate the right size of cardstock to cut, to begin with, and then where to score your lines.
The episode finishes with an overview of how to decorate two box frames to make a suitcase style gift card, like this …
The video is approx 60 minutes long so you may want to grab a cup of tea just now …? Oh, and don’t forget a toilet trip, just in case.
If you have not yet heard of the Adorable Scoreboard and would like to know more, you can find it at Create and Craft TV.
One last thing below the video, on this page, is a download link for the spreadsheet shown in the video and also an image gallery of some of the decorative steps.
Ready? Then please feel free to hit the play button.
Enjoy!
As mentioned in the video, there is a free download accompanying this episode. If you would like to make use of it, then please click on the download link below.

Hi John
Which program opens the .xlsx file for the box frame calculator spreadsheet. I only have an old Microsoft Excel program which only opens ,xls. I googled it but could only find a .xlsx viewer. Thanks

It opens in excel or OpenOffice. Both of which have free versions.
