These tiny boxes one inch square were made from scraps of DP paper and filled with heaps of tiny red punched hearts. They are to be given as a treat called Love Boxes. The idea is that the reciepent be told that whenever they are feeling down and a little neglected they have only to open the box and there they will find heaps of the love I have to share with them.... Corny!!! I guess but oh how much we all sometimes need a little lift for the moment and this is my idea of giving....
Tops of boxes are decorated with roses made from a 5 petal punch together with a smaller one - the leaves of the petals are curled with a fine knitting needle or tooth pick or whatever you have in your box of tricks....
In some of the boxes I even inserted a small photo in the underside of the lid. I plan to give these out together with small baskets of eggs for Easter.
