Candy box was purchased in the cake decorating department at Michaels, or Joanns. Holds 1/2 pound of candy. I cut a strip of designer paper and trimmed the top edge with decorative sissors and glued around the bottom of the box. Strip is about 1 inch wide. Ran a 3 inch square of pink cs through a cb folder and glued lace to the edges and glued to the top of the box. The heart stamp is by Magenta. Tied a ribbon around the box. Glued a little heart charm to center of bow. You can do so many things with these boxes and they are pretty inexpensive.
Filled a cello bag with jelly hearts. Cut a piece of white cs a little longer than the size of the bag, and about 5 inches wide. Fold in half. Decorated 1/2 the card stock with bugs and stamped the saying (bugawumps). Staple the folded card stock to the top of the bag and add ribbon.
I used a round doily and formed a cone. I cut another circle of cs a little smaller than the doily, and also formed a cone and taped shut. Put the cs cone inside the doily cone and tape in a couple of places to hold in place. I put tissue paper in the bottom of the cs cone. I inserted lollipops in the cone and taped in place. Punched two hearts and stamped on them and hung from ribbon from a multi-looped ribbon. The heart shaped lollipops were purchased at the dollar store.
Another box from the candy making department (Wilton). Has the see through window in the box when purchased. I cut a piece of card stock to cover the front, cutting out the oval. Glue lace around the oval. Heart is a sizzlet that cuts and embosses, I used a dimentional to pop it up. I cut a smaller heart and stamped it with the words a dollar stamp from Michaels. Tied a ribbon around the box at the top.
