CHOCOLATE TIME!

Hello and welcome to my latest project share. I am so pleased that you taken the time to pop by.

Today’s project is a simple 3D gift box. It was designed to hold a lovely, large block of Whittaker’s Hazelnut chocolate.

The gold and dark brown colours of the chocolate packaging inspired the colours used for the gift box.

I used 12″x 12″ Early Espresso cardstock, Gold Brushed Metallic cardstock, Gold Shimmer Vellum and White Vellum. The flip top gift box was constructed first. Then the top and sides of the box had slightly smaller pieces of Brushed Metallic cardstock secured.

A piece of Early Espresso cardstock was stamped using greetings from the Nothing’s Better Than Stamp Set – ‘Today’s Plan: Consume’ and ‘ Because Adulting is Hard’. This peice was then embossed using the checks from the Checks & Dots Embossing Folder.

A matching length of Gold Shimmer Vellum was cut using one of the Basic Borders Dies. It was adhered to the embossed Early Espresso layer. Then a piece of White Vellum attached as well. Black Stampin’ Dimensionals were used to pop this layered panel in the centre of the gift box top.

The ‘Chocolate’ was cut using one of the Love You More Than Dies. A piece Adhesive Sheet was attached to the back of the foil before cutting.

Several stamped and die cut chocolates were also added to the top of the gift box.

Finally, a length of Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim was tied around the gift box to hold the lid in place.

mmm … it is a very tasty looking block of chocolate!

Who would you give this to?

Until next time, happy stamping.
