Hmmm - did I fool you into thinking that this was it!
I found this box of gorgeous chocs - yes they are, well I had to test them! *giggle*
The packet contained 2 sections ......
which I made into a Xmas box of special chocs......
Firstly I made the box & lid............
so that it was a snug fit so that the choc's didn't rattle around
Then I decorated the box lid...........
I used die cut snowflakes & tree which were enhanced with stickles & my Sizzix
embossing folder snowman, again enhanced with stickles.
The sentiment was stamped, cut out & mounted with sticky fixers, as was the snowman.
I finished with the cheerful red spotted ribbon - in keeping with the Spots & Stripes theme.
I'd like to enter this for the Allsorts challenge blog challenge, which this week is Spots & Stripes.

Gorgeous box, i too would have to try the chocolates oh the things we have to do for our art!
I like that you wanted to make sure the candy didn't rattle around- I would have eaten it all-LOL
This is adorable and I love the sparkle. Thank you for joining us at Top Tip Tuesday. this week. Hope to have you join us again for our next challenge.
This is such a good idea and super results x
Fab. :-) Totally love it :-) Very silly question, Tis deceiving, is the box you made the exact same size as the original box? Have you used the last remaining layer of the chocs. I am wanting to package up some chocs myself but wasn't sure how to go about, they don't have 'sections' may have to make some of my own sections, maybe using slots? so they don't rattle around.
Youv'e inspired me to get my thinking cap on instead of doing 'nothing'

There were 2 trays in each box Carole so you can make 2 boxes from the one packet (if you don't do what I did & test the other lot = just to make sure that they were ok you understand! :-) )
IS THAT FOR ME??? Yum yum! Love the idea Rachel, smashing work! Thank you for joining us this week. The best of luck in the draw! xx
Yay Rachel :-) I have found the chocs. Hunted high and low at lots of different stores but without success - that was until yesterday - they have them in at the pound shop. Will let you know how I get on with the creating.
