It's a common site right now. Candy aisles filled to the brim with boxed chocolates and all sorts of goodies waiting to be given on Valentine's Day. I've come to see the containers and such that all the yummy goodies are packaged in... in a new light!
I forced myself to buy some of those oh so yummy chocolate candy boxes and turned one into this Sweet On You mini album for my hubby!
Outside cover of candy box. I cut out two set of the flowers from the Flirty paper and then layered them with foam ahesive dots for added dimension. Stickles glitter adds a perfect touch of fun to the flower centers.
Inside pullout mini album cover. I layered the flowers again but this time did not use the pop dots to keep it from being too thick.
The album pulls out and is double sided...so there's no wrong way to pull it out from the box or put it into the box as well.
Reverse side of hearts. Connect the hearts with small strips of the ribbon adhered behind photos or embellishments.
