GINGERBREAD MEN CHOCOLATES

When I was shopping recently I found a packet of cute chocolate cups with teeny, tiny gingerbread men on top. I knew that I had to make a gift box to present them in.

The Gingerbread & Peppermint 6″x 6″ Designer Series Paper and Memories & More Card Pack were perfect for this project.

The packaging was made using a piece of Early Espresso cardstock measuring 9-1/2″x 5-1/2″. It was scored at 1-1/4″, 2-1/2″, 3-3/4″ and 5″ along the long side.

After the score lines were burnished, the first 1-1/4″ scored section was then adhered to the back panel to create the standing background.

I cut two pieces of the DSP, measuring 5-1/2″x 1″, to decorate the top and front of the box.

I used several of the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack elements to decorate the background panel.

I made an insert to hold the chocolates and ensured that it would not slide out by securing Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim to the base of the gift box. The Faux Suede Ribbon ties into a bow so easily.

Aren’t the gingerbread chocolates cute?

To make sure they were separated, I created an insert for the box that has 1/2″ uprights between each chocolate. There are 5 chocolates in the box.

I am looking forward to giving this to someone for Christmas. Who would you give this treat to?

I have another Christmas gift box to share with you tomorrow. This is a great time of year for making 3D projects.

Until next time, happy stamping.
