Inspired by a Chocolate Song!!

  Our new challenge over at Cut It Up is 'Inspired by a Song.'  My project is inspired by the song "Hot Chocolate" from the movie Polar Express!  You can see an excerpt HERE!

This gift packaging has enough space for a gift card, packet of cocoa, and a candy cane!  I've made a coordinating card and envelope for this teacher's gift!  

Interested in how this was made; check out this video (from the archives) below to see how I created this.
