I whipped this up last night before Tim and I sat down to watch a movie together after the girls were in bed. It took maybe 15-20 minutes tops??
All I did was take one of these clear plastic heart containers from ATS (this is the smaller one - there is also a much larger one here) and decorate just the lid. I used my heart nestabilities - both the plain and scalloped. The very largest scalloped heart was used, then the plain largest. I also cut a smaller scalloped heart from some pink patterned paper (more Basic Grey Bittersweet!) to add some pop of color.
The bunny is from CC Designs Kisses and Hugs set - I stamped him onto white CS then used my Copic (pic of the ones I used at the end of the post with the supplies) markers to color him in.
I added some Stardust Stickles to his wings, then once they were dry I cut him out and used dimensionals to attach him to the heart.
The "A Gift For You" sentiment is from my Christmas Sentiments set (perfect for all year round) - I stamped it onto the heart with black ink.
I added some Basic Grey Bittersweet buttons with pink embroidery thread, and added a little "x" stitch with the same thread, then punched a hole under the sentiment using myMaking Memories Ribbon Slot punch.
I threaded the ribbon through before adhering the heart to the lid of the container. I just used red line dots to adhere the heart - if I want I can cut another scalloped heart and adhere it to the INSIDE of the lid so that it will hide all the adhesive and whatnot.
The ribbon then wraps around the container and is tied in a bow to keep it closed! I filled it with crumpled paper for now - I wasn't about to run out and get candy just for the pictures - I've been trying REALLY hard lately to NOT bring candy into the house. The less that is around the better. I definitely don't need it and the girls (especially Josie) get way too hyper on sugar. This container would look so cute filled with Hot Hearts tho........but I won't get any till I give it away! ;)
