Birthday Box with Hat, Card and Choc Covered Popcorn Box

I scraplifted the idea for this box and hat from Regina. Her work is awesome!!!
This is a birthday box (for my boss) that I decorated with paper (with spray adhesive) and two different styles of ribbon. Inside there was a picture frame, and the following items that I made: birthday hat, card and a box of chocolate covered popcorn. My boss seemed to really like it and I think she still has it on her desk ;-) She loves elephants, so I thought this double sided paper (with the gray on one side and spots on the other) was perfect. I love this color combination!

















The card was cut with the new arrivals Cricut cartridge (elephant on card feature at 5 1/2).
The stamp is from the SeeD's Birthday set.


The hat template can be found at: http://familycrafts.about.com/library/projects/bltemplpartyht.htm

The popcorn box is made with the Bag, Tag, Boxes and More Cricut cartridge at 5 1/2. I popped fresh popcorn and poured it over a big sheet of wax paper. Then melted chocolate and drizzled it over the popcorn from a candy melting bottle. I let it dry for about an hour then placed some in a candy bag inside the box . I took the rest to work in a big bowl and it was all gone before lunch.
