Here’s a clean stacked box mockup that works well for a gift box design, product packaging and similar projects.

It’s a handy file for subscription box companies and e-commerce brands. Quick tip: build the label or dieline flat first, then place it; bending text inside the mockup is harder to fix later.

Packaging is judged on the shelf in a couple of seconds, so seeing the design on the real shape tells you more than the flat dieline ever will. A matching label or sticker mockup rounds out the set.

What’s inside the Clean Stacked Box Mockup PSD

Open it in Photoshop and you can change:

  • Label or box artwork, placed through the smart object
  • Shadows
  • Gloss and highlight layers

Add your design to the Clean Stacked Box Mockup

  1. Build the label or box art flat, panel by panel.
  2. Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
  3. Drop your artwork in, fit it to the canvas, save and close. The mockup updates by itself.
  4. Check each visible side so the panels line up.
  5. Save a JPG for clients and social media, and keep the PSD for later changes.

Render two colour versions side by side. Clients choose faster when they compare.

Questions about this mockup

Can I use this box mockup for client work?

That depends on the author's terms. The download page lists what is allowed; when in doubt, ask the author directly.

How do I put my artwork on the box?

Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.

Which Photoshop version do I need?

A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.

Can I change the packaging colour?

Usually yes. There is normally a colour layer under the design smart object, so you can change the base colour without touching your artwork.
