Firstly – I HAVE A SILHOUETTE!!!! For at least the last year I’ve entered every single Silhouette giveway that I came across, but to no avail. Earlier this month I reached a milestone at work – 15 years of service. Our company has a nifty awards program where you get to choose gift cards to a wide variety of businesses, so I looked to see where Silhouettes were available and Overstock.com was a winner! I chose to get the Cameo for the extra cutting width in case I ever need it.
I like Market Pantry fruit snacks from Target for my girls and they have these fun Valentine ones right now, so I thought these would be nice to give for their preschool exchanges. Not exactly healthful, but at least they’re not chocolate.
I had this fun two sided scrapbook paper with sort of a Victorian feel. I bought a heart pillow box design from the Silhouette online store; on sale for $.75. I pulled the heart off and added “XO” in stencil font. I also sized the box a little larger to accommodate the fruit snack pouch.
Fold it up, toss in a pouch of cute fruit snacks and tie it all together with some baker’s twine. Cute and easy – my kind of Valentine! Arden says “XO means we love each other” – so sweet…
These are delightful! I can’t believe how you got the Silouette! Lucky girl:)
Lucky girl! Congrats on the Silhouette! Your treat boxes look fantastic.
