Busting out my curvy keepsakes die that I have never used yet. I have a guilt pile of stuff on my desk that I am determined to use this week, just had to have them at the time and then they went into storage.
Stamped the French Foliage leaves and then used the end of my bone folder to engrave around the edges since I have no idea where all my styluses are hiding. Inked the edges of the box and then crumpled it up to give it some "grain" to the "leather". It made it harder for the box to round out perfectly but I am filling it with the chocolates so I think that crime can be forgiven. Chocolates by Hershey, It's a Wrap Holidays to cover

What a wonderful and clever way of giving a sweet gift. It really does look like well-worn leather. And the ombre stamping on the candy wrappers and tags looks super - so rich and autumnal.

What a great technique to use for this wonderful treat box of goodies. The raffia and wood leaf are a great addition for a Thanksgiving theme.
