New techniques are intimidating to me. But I am going to try more new things this year because I usually love the results after I have forced myself to do them. And many of them aren't as hard as they look. I am starting out easy with a treat box as shown on SpeedyTV.
I found a piece of DP cardstock in my stash that had squares of colors. Many of the squares that were 2 x 2. Since the dimensions for scoring were at 2 inches - perfect. I cut out two hearts from the box then cut out two more hearts to add to the ribbon. The colors actually blend a lot better IRL.
Now all I need is some Valentine candy. I hope to make a few more to have ready by Valentine's Day for grandchildren.
