Chocolate for the Desk Top Organizer

Comments: 0

I promised to show you another version of the Desk Top Organizer project which I featured on my Blog Hop Post earlier this week.  You can see that post here.   This organizer was wrapped in a cellophane bag and given to a friend for her birthday.

Birthday gift for Diane

Here is another one that I made as a “pillow gift” for my roommate at my Stampin’ Up! Event this weekend.

Two Hershey candy bars fit next to each other.  Of course I had to wrap them in coordinating Bohemian Designer Series Paper.

Proof that I used Hershey’s Dark Chocolate to keep it “heart healthy”.

When the chocolate is gone, I still want the recipient to be able to use the Desk Top Organizer.  So I included some coordinating 4-1/4″ X 5-1/2″ stamped sheets of paper that fit the organizer perfectly.

Here you can see the design of the thank you cards which I put in my first organizer.  Four cards with envelopes fit easily into the organizer.  You can even add a pen and some stamps to complete the gift.

Matching Thank You card for the Desk Top Organizer.

Stamping Tip:  Use Tear & Tape Adhesive when you make the organizer or other boxes.  This adhesive is strong so your box won’t pop open at the seams.

Thanks for visiting.  To continue with the hop, please refer to the Blog Hop Line-up below.  I hope to see you on next month’s Pals Blog Hop!

Happy Stamping!
