Meant to Be Valentine Treat Box

With just over a month until Valentines Day, I thought it would be a good time to share a lovely treat box holder.  This project was designed by my friend Susan Campfield as part of a Stampin’ Leaders Co-op I belong to.  The feminine looking box was created using the Meant to Be Bundle which includes the  Meant to Be stamp set and the coordinating Be Mine Stitched Framelits.  I hope you enjoy it.
