Valentine Candy Totes and Cards

Once again, The Paper Pixie (Video instructions here) for a win with these easy to make, no special tools required totes that will hold 4 Nuggets or Treasures candies. This first one was my test and came out so well, I gave it and a card to the woman who cuts my hair. 

A view from above. This reminds me of the cartons that hold 4 glass bottles of root beer 
or 6 bottles of long necks, my preferred way to drink real beer. 
These additional totes are for family members. The hearts were cut from a Gina K die
 that had a hole in the upper left where I placed the pearls and gems. 
The print papers are from miscellaneous sources in my stash. 

I made identical cards for my sons using a Tim Holtz Circuit Multi-Level Embossing Folder 665372 

My granddaughter's card used an image from My Favorite Things stamp set Unicorns and Glitter BB-100 on a background made using Altenew Stencil set Shattered Cubes. The popped out base instructions can be found at Jennifer McGuire's easy box pop 
My grandson is almost 12 so he is outgrowing some of the cutesy stuff but understands my love of puns and just plain corny stuff. I downloaded an image of a ruler to print on kraft-colored cardstock. The You Rule is a die from Spellbinders Pack It Up die set.
