Hello everyone, here is a cute little box I made this morning for my friend Conny's birthday in October. Greg and I are looking forward to her and her boyfriend visiting us in Chicago around that time so this is one of her presents. I love the Artiste cartridge and this is my first box I have made from this cartridge. I love the cute little handles so I cut this out at 4 inches, I actually pressed the "fit to page" function on my Cricut and this is the size it gave me which turned out perfect. I bought this cardstock a while back especially to make Conny a box as it was quite cute with the polka dots and nice for a birthday! I then cut a label from Artiste at 2 inches and used one of the Close to my Heart stamps that came with Artiste for the greeting. I liked the greeting as this box is filled with Lindt Peanut butter balls so it's quite sweet! I sent Conny some of these a while back and she loved them and as she can't get them in Germany I thought this was the perfect treat for this box! I set some white eyelets in the label, tied some pink and white twine around it and finished with a cupcake button and striped ribbon.
Beautiful little box honey, better than any store bought one! Conny will love it!! Love Hubby!! xoxoxo

Lindsey that is so cute also and I love the cup cake button, I thought it wouldn't be long too they invented a special button, I think they have covered cup cakes in all other fields. Connie will defiantly love this.
