Abstract
Abstract A folding carton has a dimensional decorative element and is formed from a cut and scored blank of paperboard or the like and comprises a plurality of connected panels defining a tube. An ultimate and a penultimate panel are foldably connected to each other with the penultimate panel foldably connected to one end of the plurality of panels. The penultimate panel readily has a viewing aperture therein, and a subpanel in the ultimate panel is folded through an angle of 180* with respect to the penultimate panel so that the final assembly provides depth through the viewing aperture to the intelligence on the subpanel.
