Mystery man

This card started with the gift, the small box of mints. Since the gift was would be sent along with the card, I decided to include it in the card design.

I found a picture of the mint box from the manufacturer's web site and copied and enlarged it (and probably managed to break some copyright in the process). I printed it, cut it out and used it as a template for the card blank. I left a hinge at the top so that it opens like the box does. I glued the printed picture onto the card blank and embellished it a little: a bit of red glitter to highlight the "SO", peel-off numbers for the age and a rhinestone for the mint. Finally, I glued the mint box onto the card with a large foam pad.
