Lucky Turtle Treat Box

I was so excited to create a project for a BUNCH of challenges this week! I have put together a fun treat box for my son's preschool teacher.  I used Tags, Bags, Boxes & More and cut the Nut Cup out of some green card stock at 5 1/4".  Then I cut the same thing out of some Paper Studio pattern paper at 5" so I could cut up the sections and glue them on the sides.  I used Create A Critter 2 for the lucky turtle cut at 2" and I popped him up with some foam tape.  I embossed the shell with Swiss Dots and cut the hat and buckle out of glitter paper (can't really tell in the pic).  I also cut the shamrock (2") from Create A Critter 2, just the shadow cut on the same page as the turtle.  My stamp is from CardzTV "Happy Days" and I used Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  The ribbon is from American Crafts. Just finished it up by filling it with some "grass" and gold Hershey Nuggets. I really like how this turned out.

The challenges I am entering this into are

Thanks for checkin' in!!!
