                                              *SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS / ALTERATIONS:

            I chose to showcase this adorable little Valentine Matchbook as a message center for the Heart Box die. I used this box as a mounted, open gift box that, together with the Matchbook, makes a charming ensemble that would be ideal for any student to give to his/her teacher for Valentines. Or even an office gift for your co-workers.

            Here, I have again used the Cheery Lynn Expandable Tiny Borders on this project to add just a bit of whimsy on each side of the box.

            On the front of the card, I used the little heart punch-outs from the Heart Insert Die to embellish the velvet ribbon as well as the three hearts on the bottom left of the card.

            On the inside of the card, I found that the Spellbinders Classic Hearts shape went quite nicely for the message insert of the Heart Pocket

            The Cheery Lynn Expandable Tiny Borders are a must have. There are so many of them that you get from the one die and they are small enough to put just about anywhere on your cards or projects. I Love Them!!!
