Cut open a Reversible Sequin Rainbow Drawstring Bag to make a single piece of reversible sequin fabric. Trace around the two front facing tiers of the card box to make two rectangles on the sequin fabric. Cut out the rectangles. Adhere each sequin fabric rectangle to the front of the box with a bead of hot glue.
