Hi, this week at Gingersnaps we are focussing on Packaging. There are some great examples from the DT today using all manner of materials. The DT packaging piece I chose to use was a Chocolate Box, minus the chocs, because am such a greedy guts I ate the lot...........shock horror I hear you cry..........lol
Products used: Aluminium Tape, Stazon, Acrylic Paint, Inka Gold, Gold Embossing Powder, Lace, Book pages, Tim Holtz Die Cut and various bits and pieces from my stash. Stamps used: Art Journey and Kelly Panacci.
Do so hope you will join in the fun with us at Gingersnaps. This month we are kindly sponsored by Altered Pages. Will be catching up with you all later. Have a wonderful day, take care, Annette x

So pretty and unique. Love the 3D effect of this and the net over the paper at the back is very effective. Great job Annette.

Pretty project and great use of an empty chocolate box.
And I can tell you enjoyed the chocolate first :-))
Great box, mmmm maybe I should go get some chocolates so I can alter one too...he he ha ha...
Great work Annette.
Hugs, Kim
helloooo lovely lady.... well in my eyes you can be forgiven for eating all the chocs when you can create something that wonderful with the box. I think you should eat a few more boxes so we can see more variations of what you can do with them...lol

Love this piece Netty and I hope you enjoyed those chocolates. I am so in love with dress forms at the mo and your piece is just wonderful!!
This is simply divine. I think you've inspired me to go buy a box of chocolates--such a shame I have to eat them all in order to alter the empty box!
