I made this box to put candy and money in for my daughter's birthday. I really went out of my comfort zone by going 3-D and by using primary colors. The butterfly gems were given to me by Carri from DoubleClick AKA a Busy Bee CLICK HERE to view her amazing blog. Thanks for the inspiration gems Carri. I cut the box at 9.5" from Tie The Knot. I didn't think it would be this big. But I love it for candy or cookies. The flowers are from Flower Shoppe-very 3D.
