The "charm" of the box is in the 6 optional embellishments that you can easily attach to the box when you tie it closed. Some of the charms are double-layered, so you can really get creative with your choice of papers, colors, and embellishments. I used Stickles on a couple of mine to add some bling. They're large enough to hold a large variety of treats and gifts, but small enough to set on a plate to add a nice touch to your table, the perfect size for a child to give as valentines, or a great little alternative to a card for tucking in a little cash. I know all you creative ladies will find dozens of other uses for it!
I didn't make a tutorial for this one, because it's so quick and simple, but if you have any problems or questions, please email me. The Design Studio file has 7 pages - 1 for the box and 1 each for the six optional charms. For you Gypsy users with multi-page issues, I've made each page a separate file and zipped them up for one easy download.
Now, I have just one request for my followers who are downloading files. I want to see pics of your projects! I love seeing how other people interpret and jazz up my designs, so please email me your photos. I get inspiration and ideas from all of YOU, too!
Cartridges needed are: George for the box, heart, star, & shamrock; Walk in My Garden for flower, Mickey & Friends for Mickey.
EDIT, Jan 25: You will need New Arrival for the onesie
As always, the only "payment" I ask for my files is a comment. I love comments! OK, that's two requests, but who's counting?
Cricut kisses!

Thanks Cindy for another wonderful Creation.
These are so cute. Thanks for sharing the files.
These are fantastic! I'm particularly thrilled that the Shamrock is on George (which I have) since my 50th b-day is on St. Patrick's Day. Methinks I might have to get me something special to put in there :) Thank you so much for once again sharing your amazing talent.
YEA YOUR BACK!!!
I was worried about you, being so quiet.
Sorry to hear that you were sick.
Love the boxes and will be doing them tomorrow.

Thank you so much for this Freebie. I want to let you know that I posted a link to your blog in Creative Busy Hands Cricut Freebies Search List, under the Box, Purses, etc. post on Jan. 25, 2010. Thanks again.
These are adorable. Thanks for the file. I have a baby shower coming up and am going to try the onesie box. I will post pics once i cut it. TFS
Thanks so much for sharing! I am a new follower and when I do make one of your projects I will link back so you can see a picture!
happt2scrap....fold in the 2 slotted flaps first and connect them slot-into-slot. The 2 rounded flaps are connected by putting ribbon thru and tying on the front. If you add one of the charms, thread it on to the ribbon before tying. That's all there is to it!
Hi Cindy
You won the Digital Delights image candy on my blog:)
