Valentine Treat Boxes for the Grands

I made these little 4x4.5 treat boxes for the grandkids and filled them with Valentine M&M's. One bag of candy fills 4 boxes this size, so I'll make one for my DH at a later time :) I used BoBunny Crush and Crazy Love dsp for all 3, adding scraps of red, pink, and bubblegum pink card stock. I added a double heart on each one, made with Spellbinder's Classic Hearts dies, and punched a tiny tag for each one, hand-writing the girls names and adding a tiny heart. The 2 boxes on the left have a brad in the center, and the one on the right was a little glittered heart that came in an order as a freebie, and it perfectly matches the glittered ribbon I used.
I'm entering these boxes into the Tuesday Throwdown #83 which is to use "hearts." I think each of these treat boxes meets the challenge :)
Enjoy your Tuesday and thanks for the little visit today :)

Bravo! I tried to get the DH to stop at L&L for me to get the classic heart dies, as I only have the scalloped, but he insists he was not near the shop. How many Ephratas are there? I bet if he was asked to stop at Shady it would have been a done deal! The kids will love these yummy boxes, I am sure!

Carol, the girls will flip over these. they are so very cute and I love all the colors you used. I'm sure DH will love his also. I really have to get that classic heart die. All the stores around here just carry the scalloped set and I really like the classic set, so I may have to order it on line. Talk to you soon.
