Individual SVGs · Dimensions in mm

From pieces to finished shape

Wrap the example belly band. Flat 180 × 74 mm. Strip 180 × 24 mm, sized for an example box 40 × 30 mm around (140 mm, plus a 40 mm overlap). The front plaque is 46 × 42 mm. Measure your own box before you cut.

  1. The 180 by 24 millimeter strip and the 46 by 42 millimeter arch plaque.

    Separate band and plaque

    Keep the strip and the optional arch plaque apart. Measure around your box, add an overlap, and resize the strip to that length. Stretching the strip doesn't resize the plaque.

  2. The band with its four fold lines, marked 40, 30, 40 and 30 millimeters plus a 40 millimeter overlap.

    Place folds for your box

    This example has panels of 40, 30, 40 and 30 mm, then a 40 mm overlap. Fold at 40, 70, 110 and 140 mm from the left (set those lines to Score). For your box, move the fold lines to your own panel widths; stretching the strip moves them out of place.

  3. The arch plaque centered on one 40 by 24 millimeter side of the band; together they measure 46 by 42 millimeters.

    Wrap, then center the plaque

    Fold the band around your box and glue the 40 mm overlap to the first panel. Center the arch plaque on a 40 × 24 mm side: it reaches 3 mm past each edge and 9 mm above and below. Try it on the box before you glue anything for good.

What to have ready for this project
Material
Measure around your box, and decide the band width, overlap and a little ease. Card that folds cleanly; the 40 × 30 mm box is only an example.
Software
Design Space, Silhouette Studio or any program that opens SVG. Check the size reads in millimeters, and set fold lines to Score.
Cut and score
Resize the strip and move the fold lines to your panel widths. Cut the optional plaque on its own, then score or crease the folds.
To put it together
Your box, and glue for the overlap and the plaque. Wrap it once without glue: too little overlap or a tight band won't close.

Use the pieces together

The full SVG holds every design on one sheet. A single file lets you work on one design without the rest. Select every piece of a layered design before you resize it, so borders, holes and insets stay in proportion.

Groups and layers

  • band
  • fold guides
  • decorative front
  1. SVG dimensions are in millimeters. The full-pack dimensions describe the arranged sheet; each individual file has its own dimensions.
  2. Import one individual SVG or ungroup the full sheet. Preserve the aspect ratio and check a known dimension before cutting.
  3. Solid shapes are the pieces you cut. Negative spaces use the even-odd fill rule. Dashed lines are folds: set them to Score, or delete them and fold by hand.
  4. Plain band: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.
  5. Arch plaque: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.
  6. Ticket plaque: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.
  7. Leaf plaque: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.
  8. Star plaque: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.
  9. Faceted plaque: Example perimeter is 140 mm (40 + 30 + 40 + 30), leaving 40 mm for overlap. Reposition guides for your measured box; scaling the whole design changes band width too.

For a wedding table, pair these pieces with place cards, favor tags or box bands.

Use the belly-band calculator to get the length from your box size, overlap and a little room. Stretch only the plain strip to that length; keep the decorated front at its size.

See how the pieces fold, stack and line up, which lines to set to Score, and how to resize them together.

Before you start

  • These strips are examples; measure your own box before you cut. Measure the assembled box and reposition the fold guides.
  • Use the band as decoration, not as a weight-bearing closure.
