Sprinkle embossing powder
Remove the frame insert from the lid and place it and your box on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the embossing enamel generously over top of it and the bottom of the box. You want it covered, but do not want the enamel to ooze over the edges.

Melt & distribute enamel
Place the cookie sheet in a 340 degree oven for 3 minutes or until the enamel is melted. Repeat with a second layer if needed. Repeat this process for each side of the box, turning the box so the side being enameled is always the side it's resting on in the oven. Each side will remelt and drip onto whatever is below it, so before allowing it to cool use a heat gun to help distribute it evenly.

Install cardstock & apply enamel
Install the cardstock piece inside the frame, backing it with the wooden piece we've lined and enameled for the inside. Repeat the enameling process by sprinkling powder inside the frame and using the over to melt it. Use only a little enamel powder at a time, working one layer at a time. Use a heat gun to remove any air bubbles that develop.
