Valentine Candy Box

Here is a sample of a candy box that I just finished designing today. My girls wanted to do something different for their class for Valentines Day so we came up with these boxes. They can hold 3-4 small candy bars (the little square ones), just enough for small children. The box has double tabs to open the first and second flaps. This design will cut on a 6x12 mat with no problem and make a 2.5" square by 1.1" high box. The flowered box has the "lined heart" on the outside flap. The dog/heart pattern box has it on the inside flap. This seemed better to hold the candy in and not have to glue in any clear plastic. This can also be viewed on my craft website at

Thank you. I just sent you a direct email... The adoption website that pops-up is for adoption websites that I create to traveling families. I have that set as my base paypal account - I probably should add another style to paypal for the crafts. Thanks again for the support.

Thanks for the purchase. Yeah, I didn't realize that there was a return ULR setup for my paypal account. I set that up years ago and since I never purchase from myself I never see it.

Thank you! I have a PDF file that shows where the bend lines are. Most of them line up with cuts for the box so it is really easy to follow.
