I started by designing a cut file for it that would enable it to look like 2 eggos were overlapping.
I cut 1 base, 3 of the full waffles and 2 of the waffles with a section missing.
I then sealed my card with Dorlands Wax Sealant to ensure the alphas wouldn't peal off.
As the boys and I were traveling down on the train for a week long stay with my daughters the week before my daughter's birthday I decided to just pack the card and instead organise everything else once down there. I arranged some awesome Stranger Things and Spiderman cupcakes to be made by her housemate who has her own cake decorating business in Brisbane (My Sweet Addiction)I also got my eldest to pick up Christmas lights and I used her scrapping stash to make a box to fit a pack of waffles for a mini themed afternoon tea with just us and her housemates as she prefers small events.
Here is a quick how to of how I made the box.
I then measured my waffle pack and cut my cardstock to size and then scored it which was difficult as my daughter's scoring tool was missing so I had to use the back of a knife and her trimmer. I did slip and cut through one section so I just taped it back together with washi tape.I then cut down the sections that would form the ends.
I then used my Helmar Acid Free Glue to glue my box closed around my waffles.The card turned out so cute.
At the afternoon tea I sat the card on top of the box so it looked like a box of Eggos.
