Seeing Spots Chocolate Origami Box.....

Back Again with another Origami Box - Have you made one yet????

I made this box to look after CHOCOLATE!

I was telling the 'Crafty Bunch' of ladies at my workshop last Wednesday, how to make these Chocolate Thank you's, so I thought it would be lovely for them all to have one each. The Origami box came just at the right time to fit 30 Chocolates. I would probably put dividers in next time, but I am short of time today as it needs to get in the post.

The cardstock is Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery and Whisper White. Retired Certainly Celery designer paper was used - which is still available while stocks last! The same measurements were used as in the previous Blog post.
This is the chocolate inside...
This is the side view. Certainly Celery 5/8" ribbon was used through the Jumbo eyelets.

This is the top of the box. I used the scallop border punch again to decorate the corners. All 3 circle punches were used with the Seeing Spots stamp set.

Must get this in the post now.

Thanks for looking

    Gorgeous box, and i just LOVE the big eyelet for the ribbon, it looks really tidy and 'finished'

    I have made the boxes as a top and bottom (cut the square about 1/4 of an inch smaller for the bottom), but i just love how stylish these look!
