Happy Valentines Day!

Of course as a mom and grandma, I love giving Valentine surprises to all the kids. Here are some Valentine boxes I made for the best grandchildren in the world! Even if I were not a Stampin’ Up! Demo, I would probably use rubber stamping supplies to make gift packaging and handmade cards…have you been card shopping at a retail store lately? For these boxes, I used the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set, Real Red, Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, and Basic Black Classic Ink. Of course, each box is filled with different treats and treasures.
