A pointed flap for a small Christmas parcel
Holly beneath an envelope flap
Holly Parcel is a Christmas envelope gift box SVG for small flat keepsakes and wrapped favors. Its shallow body gives the pointed flap the proportions of an envelope with room behind it.
Holly Parcel
Two holly leaves and three berries anchor the front panel. Small stars sit around the sprig, leaving clear space below the pointed flap. The artwork is an engraved illustration with no lettering.
Images illustrate a finished appearance. The download contains digital files only. Supply your own cardstock, tools, adhesive, closures and contents.

From flat cardstock to a finished box
-
Check the scale and material
Extract the ZIP and import the SVG at its supplied size. Compare the millimeter dimensions in the guide with the import. Test cutting, optional engraving and optional scoring on matching scrap. Confirm that the machine and stock are suitable for each operation.
-
Assign the operations
Set red to through-cutting, blue to a tested shallow score and black fills to light surface engraving. If the paper tears or weakens on a score, turn blue paths off and crease by hand from the map. Where supported, engrave and score before cutting interior details and releasing the outer contour.
-
Fold and finish
Crease the folds, then glue the seam and bottom as shown in the fold map. Turn the dust flaps inward and bring the pointed flap down over the opening. Add a ribbon or removable seal by hand after processing. Check that the pointed flap lies flat over the dust flaps and that your keepsake fits the shallow body.
The dieline was checked digitally. Make a complete physical prototype on your chosen stock before producing multiples.
Import and preview on your laser
Glowforge. Upload the SVG in the app supported by your model. Verify scale, assign red, blue and black to the corresponding operations and arrange the print steps before processing.
xTool Studio or XCS. Use the software supported by your model. Check the SVG import DPI and verify the millimeter dimensions. Test Score on scrap before using the fold layer on cardstock.
Epilog. Import the SVG in Pulse on supported models and firmware. For the vector and Dashboard workflow, confirm that the thin vector paths register as separate cutting and scoring processes and that black fills engrave.
CO₂ or diode lasers. Use an SVG-capable workflow such as LightBurn with supported equipment. Keep cutting and scoring on separate Line layers and assign the art to Fill. Cardstock suitability depends on the machine, stock color and coating. Follow your manufacturer’s ventilation, material and supervision instructions. Use settings tested on your equipment and stock.
Common questions
What comes with the digital download?
The ZIP contains box.svg, README.txt and fold-map.png. Process box.svg to make the carton. The English guide explains stock selection and assembly. The PNG shows which lines to crease.
Does the envelope flap lock by itself?
The pointed flap folds down over the side dust flaps. Use your own ribbon or removable seal to hold it closed. The nominal body is 62 × 16 × 46 mm. Check fit on an assembled sample before choosing what to put inside.
Can I use the SVG on a CO₂ or diode laser?
Use a model and application that support SVG import and the selected cardstock. Check the outline size, separate the three operations and test on matching scrap. If laser scoring weakens the paper, omit the blue paths and crease by hand.
Can I resize the design or sell the boxes I make?
Scale all parts and operations together, then check tab, closure and fold fit on your stock. You may sell finished boxes you make. See the README for terms covering the digital files.
