I swear.. with all the goodie boxes I make you would think all I do is pass out candy and whatnot, lol. No, I don't.. I just really enjoy making them!
This one is simple and quick to make with a mix of a cartridge and a couple SVG files.
Cricut cartridge Simply Charmed (I cut the legs off the ladybug) : SVG Cuts Favor boxes : SVG Cuts Rosie's Ribbons : Swiss dot embossing folder : Hearts embossing folder : Paper of your choice
Use a Cuttlebug for embossing! Fill up with some candy (or even a cupcake would fit in here!) and give it to your love bug! :)
Yes, I know Valentine's Day is still a month away.. LOL!
Cute! I don't think I have the ribbons yet. now you got me hooked. Do you know how to make frames with them yet? That's the only thing holding me back so far.

This is so cute Tamara...love the colors and the embossing folders you choose to design with.

Lenae - I haven't tried to make frames yet. But, I would think you just wed them in SCAL?
Thanks so much, Lisa! It was just a quick and simple project :)

how would you get right angles though? That's my problem with the welding. Is there something to center them or line them up? That's what I can't figure out! I;m sure it can't be hard. I'm gonna buy these anyway they are too cute!

I need a basic tutorial for this kind of stuff. I have NOTHING and don't really know what I would need to make this stuff. There seems to be so much stuff available that it's really overwhelming for a beginner.
Can you help? You seem to know what you're doing.

Jennifer, I can help you with as much as I know. You can also search You Tube for helpful videos and SVG Cuts has some up to help with Sure Cuts A Lot. Plus, the people on the cricut message boards are super helpful!
