I have extra boxes on hand since I ordered boxes in quantity for our wedding invitations, so I decided to use some for the Valentines Card Exchange! I’m glad I made these, because I learned a lot of logistical things for my future invites, like the postage is flat rate per ounce (no matter where it goes in the country), and also that you need TONS of candy for these suckers!
I quilled some hearts with little love quotes on the inside… kind of like fortunes, only, you know, not fortunes. So actually, not like fortunes at all. I gocco’ed a card, gocco’ed the box tops, filled the boxes with Conversation Hearts candy, tied them with twine, and shipped them off. The whole thing is a complete ripoff of Mrs. Gummibear’s invitations. And guess what? My invitations will be too. I laugh in the face of originality.

those are fantastic! And I must have been on vacation during Miss GB’s post, because those are amazing as well, and I never saw them. Very impressive.
I love them!
THEY ARE DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! i am so jealous and crossing my fingers that i am your v-day swap person! you’re amazing! i looooooooooove them!
wow these look amazing! 
yes, i hope i get one from you! if not, i can’t wait to see who i get one from!
i got mine yesterday (yay, thanks miss penguin!)- what a nice surprise
i finally got mine and OH it is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
i totally smoked a cigarette afterwards.
absolutely adorable - the heart swirls are so cute!
I LOVE THESE!!
They’re so cute! I was wondering, where did you get the boxes from? I’ve been looking for boxes like those but can’t seem them anywhere online. Thanks!
P.S. After watching your gocco demo on WeddingBee TV, I put aside my fears of gocco-ing and bought one and totally love it. Double thanks for being my gocco-fear-slayer! =)
I bought my boxes here (I buy tons of stuff here, its all in quantity)
$26 for 50 boxes (46 cents each)
Ahhh… I was going to do boxes and put cinnamon hearts inside. I suppose I should come up with something else!
AWESOME! WHAT INCREDIBLE TALENT!
question… so do you have to wrap the boxes to send them? or can you just put a ribbon or label sticker to adhere to top to bottom and then send them? Thanks!!
Oh my gosh… those are incredible! You are an inspiration, Miss Penguin! Just beautiful!
Except now I’m feeling blah–my cards defintely don’t stack up. But I still think they’re cute
