Chocolate Gift Box/Envelope


Good afternoon.
Today I am going to share a chocolate bar gift box/envelope with you.
I got my inspiration off of Facebook :- Fantastic Foamiran (Anna Maria Balajzy)and followed a youtube channel for instructions, Envelope making tutorial/DIY designer gift envelope (Ankita's Craft Corner), this was so easy to follow. I am a visual learner rather than being given measurements & then working out what to do.

Actually ..... this can be used for a small diary, notepad & pen, etc.

I thought that these would be ideal for my Grandchildren's school teachers. My daughter spends so much money on gifts and with me being a Nursery School Practitioner, I know I would be over the moon in receiving a gift like this.

The good thing is that you only need an A4 size piece of card to start off with.

Hope you like it and give you some inspiration in making some too. If you have already made something like this, please share your photos, I would love to see them.
