And turned them into these pretty Valentine boxes...
Sweet and petite...
I kept it simple ~ even leaving some of the old cigar box showing on this slide top box. I thought it might be nice to store the "keeper" Valentine cards...
I love this french inspired post card and used it quite often...
I think this is my favorite...
I usually keep my favorite. Which will work out good this time since I glued this one shut!! Oh well. I had fun making them so I kept going. This box was the one I originally intended to keep...
Isn't it sweet...
So happy my Valentine will be home soon! I want to say thank you for stopping by today to my wonderful followers (and any visitors) and to my new followers ~ Welcome! I can not believe I am over the 300 mark for followers! It is very humbling and exciting at the same time. My one year Blog Anniversary is coming up on February 10th. To celebrate I am starting to think about a giveaway. Something different this time, just not sure what yet! I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Those are beautiful Sandi! You did a wonderful job! Maybe you can somehow unglue the one you glued shut with a sharp knife or Xacto (SP?) blade. I need to work on a box to hide the 10 million remotes we now have:) Happy Monday!
Those are adorable! I hope your valentine made it home safely!
Have a great Monday!
