side, and adding some wheels and decorations, you’ ve got yourself a race car!

Fold the box into the cake slice box shape, taping the two tabs down to hold together.
       Instructions
   Cut cake slice box from 8 1/2-by-11- inch cardstock using AccuCut die. Crease all scored lines.
                    Trace and cut out the windshield from clear acetate or vellum. Fold the bottom straight edge and tape to
the car as shown.
Using stickers, cardstocks, stamps or
markers, decorate the outside of the car as you want. Add racing stripes down the center, flames on the side. You can add a racing car number or a name.
 Close the box by folding in the tabs and slipping the tab into the slot. Turn the cake slice on its side.
         Tires: From black cardstock, punch out four circles from
the 1 1/2-inch circle punch. Create the rims by using the 1-inch circle, small
star punch or flower punch in white or silver and glue to the center of the tires. You can draw on the circle, or you can make the tires in the front smaller by using a 1-inch punch.
Use glue dots to add the tires onto the car as shown. Match up the placement
of each tire on each side so the car is level.
Open the box up to put treats inside to use as a favor or gift.
