Sending Love large banner treat box

 Happy Sunday everyone!  I hope everyone is enjoying some much-needed relaxation today.  I have another treat/gift box you can use for Valentines, wedding or any time you want to send a little love to someone.  I've combined two of the latest products by Stampin' Up! in this project.  You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.  I hope you will give it a try and make something special for your friends or family.  They're pretty quick and easy to make.  Of course, you could make this box for any occasion at all just by changing colors and decorations.   If you don't have the banner dies, no worries, you can use two pieces of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" and it will work just as easily.  To make the banner ends, cut down in the center of one end about 1/2", then cut down from each side to the center cut to make your own banner if you would like.

Endless Love bundle* 167062 (includes stamps and coordinating dies)
