DIY Matching *Be Mine* Card & Box Set
"One of the best ways to show your love to someone is by exerting effort, and this valentines day, instead of buying a present, or a greeting card at a local convenience store, why not create your own? We'll help you create the perfect valentines card and gift box set, that's not only unique but very personalized as well. Before anything else, if you have a vinyl cutter or die-cutting machine, the better! This would definitely make the project a little more fun and easier too. If you're all set, here we go!"
