Crafting musketeers challenge 19: anything but a card


This is my design project for team B's mid-month design inspiration for Crafting musketeers challenge 19. You can see the lovely designs by the rest of team B here and can join in with your entries here - we would love to see you there.

The challenge is being sponsored by Delicious Doodles and I have used their 'penguin family' for my project.

Recently I bought a box of Belgian chocolate sticks and was taken with the fact that there was an inner box within the main packaging and I thought this would be good if altered and decorated to be used for housing a Christmas gift.

This is the original packaging:


And this is the altered project. I split the original image in two to create two panels (the back two panels are the same). I punched out a lot  of silver snowflakes from scrap pieces of silver mirror card, dotting them around above the images and also putting some on the gold fold down pieces of the inner box.


This is also for:
