Bloggers Challenge #140-Bags or Boxes

Wow it is the last Friday of February!! This year sure is going by fast!! Since it is Friday I have another Bloggers Challenge for all of you and our group mom, Lisa, challenged us to make a bag or box. My project was one I did for Valentine's Day and I thought I would share it with all of you.
This little hanging box can hold some candy along with a gift card or even some money. Now that is the kind of box I like!!!
I started with the Big Shot and the Bigz Die called Petal Card. I ran my Kraft Cardstock through the machine cutting two of these Petal Cards and then lining up a 1/2" from one of the score lines I cut off one of the folds using my trimmer. I did this again with the fold right next to the one I just cut off. This makes the heart shape and little flaps you can glue both cards together with. Attaching your Real Red 5/8" Satin Ribbon using your Crop-A-Dile to punch the holes you make it into a hanging box. I also used the background stamp called En Francais, the stamp set called I {Heart} Hearts & Messages for Mom, Heart to Heart Punch and Sponge Daubers.

This project is actually a CASE of a project I saw on Stampin' Connection, a NING Community for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators. Yet another awesome reason to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!!
Make sure to check out the other ladies in this Bloggers Challenge Group to see what they came up with!!

Have a great day!!
