I'm using double sided tape to stick them together, but how on earth do I not crease them??? Do you roll them around something when sticking them together???
Would love to do some as extra favours at my sisters wedding, but just cannot get one crease free.
Any tips ?

My sister is coming to stay for a couple of days next week (oh joy! :rolleyes:) anyway we have made up a couple of little easter gifts for her and hubby, or rather my little boy has he is really proud of them and wanted me to post them on mommys forum!

Thankyou PPP, he didn't want a straight edge so I just scored it then cut it He had a lovely time making them and we need to make some easter cards for them aswell as he would like to give them cards. Bless him. total spend of £2.00 and that was just the chocky, I am sure she will be thrilled with them and she will also be amazed it only cost £1 each

Did you put chocolate eggs in them rusty?

Has anyone made the containers out of cello? I had a go and wasn`t happy with the result as the double sided tape showed through!

I have done yes I found some mini packs of creme eggs in home bargains for 40p a pack they have about 6 or 7 small cremem eggs in them so just put them in there

I haven't made any from cello! wouldn't have even thought to try if I am honest.

I still have some cones left so I might have a go at doing something with them for easter

Fantastic Rusty, your little lad made them just perfect.:T :T :T I love the scallops on the edges and his little gift tags are just brilliant.

can i ask when you make these, some seem to bhe bigger than others but do you always keep your card more of a rectangle than square? ive just tried hese but they dont look quite right, so i was wondering if you wlays keep it more of square for them to work? sorry if this sounds stupid just wanting to get it right
