Make My Monday #58 - chocolate bar wrappers



Good Morning everyone, i hope you had a good weekend.

So its another new challenge over at make my monday , these fortnights seem to come round fast.  The theme this time is:

ANYTHING BUT A CARD

So i decided to make some chocolate bar wrappers, makes a little gift idea and can easily be matched to the card.  I use galaxy chocolate bars as they still come with a paper sleeve, you can remove this and it leaves the chocolate always covered with the inner foil. 



Remove the paper sleeve and use this to measure the patterned paper needed, carefully wrap this around the chocolate bar and glue together to form a sleeve.  I die cut lots of daisy flowers and then built up flowers, die cut blue pearl florishes.  Stamped sentiment die cut into a fishtail banner. Pearls to finish.  I stamped the greeting in grey as a bit softer than black.






This one is pale blue and violet combo







and below as i had flowers & die cuts left over ive made matching cards, 



Using dies i die cut a white octogen cardblank, added the patterned paper, die cut a octogen frame.  Stamped sentiment die cut into an octogen.  Then i arranged the left over flowers and die cuts. Pearls to finish. 

The same but different layout. 


Items used:
Crealies Octogen patchwork die set
Memory box Stitched Octogen dies
Daisy flower dies
Sizzix swirl dies
Justrite sentiment stamps
Watering can Archival ink
Blue Coredinations gemstone cardstock
Lilac/ivory centura pearl cardtock
