Birthday chocolate


It will be my youngest son Milo's birthday on the 4th July
and even though he will be 39 I still like to give him
a bit of chocolate packaged up for his birthday.


His favourite is Yorkie bars so that's what I designed the box to fit.
It holds 3 chunky bars.


You can watch my tutorial here

I used Latte Love Bundle to match his birthday card.

Measurements needed to make one
Card - 8" x 9 1/2" Score 8" side at 1 1/2", 6 1/2" Score 9 1/2" side at 1 1/2", 4", 5 1/2", 8" DSP to decorate two pieces at 1 2/8" x 2 2/8" three pieces at 4 6/8" x 1 2/8" two pieces at 4 6/8" x 2 2/8" one 1" circle

  19. Great box and delicious contents! Unfortunately, according to the old adverts, Yorkie is NOT for girls. So it's a good job the birthday gift is for your son! LOL! xxx
