Hi sweet friends! Traci here and today, I’m sharing a fun Valentine’s Day project with a tutorial. I made a heart shaped box with scrapbook pages tucked inside that are perfect for photos of your loved ones. I used Lori’s beautiful cutting file called Big Heart Shaped Box Roses (SVG, Silhouette) and it turned out so pretty. 💕

The lid of this box is gorgeous. I love its scalloped edge and the rose flower cut-outs. I used pink and white card stock and the Doodlebug Design, Lots of Love Collection to create this project.
Here’s what the file looks like …
This box is so pretty. It measures 6″ x 6.75″ x 2.5″ and could be used for small gifts like jewelry, a toy, love notes, cookies, candy, a gift card, money, or directions for a Valentine’s Day scavenger hunt. How fun!

I used the same file to create the heart shaped pages. I didn’t bind them because, with a ring, they didn’t fit properly in the box. But that’s ok … they’re perfectly secure inside and now they’re even more interactive!

I covered the white pages in 12×12 and 6×6 prints from the Lots of Love Collection and created photo mats with a 3″ scalloped punch and a 2.5″ circle punch. Then, I decorated with lots of cute die cuts. Love!
Now, time for the tutorial …
1. First I cut out all of the pieces.
2. The pink ones are for the lid.
3. And the white pieces are for the base of the box.
4. Next, I folded all the long strips (2 pink and 2 white) along the score lines. The little notches will be glued around the flat heart shapes to create the sides of the lid and box.
5. Each strip fits around one side. I prefer liquid glue for this so that each of the notches can slide into place around the curves of the heart.
6. Once both strips are adhered, the lid will look like this.
7. I repeated the same steps for the box, folding on the score lines and then adhering each strip around the base heart shape. The cutting file includes 2 heart shapes for the box, and two for the lid. Once the sides are adhered to each piece, the extra hearts are glued over the notches for a seamless look.
8. For my shaped pages, I made a smaller heart by creating an internal offset of the original and cut out 4 pieces. This gave me 8 scrapbook pages (4 double sided), but there’s plenty of room in the box for more.
9. I created another internal offset to get an even smaller shape for the pattern paper.
10. I layered the card stock pieces, making these pages nice and sturdy.
11. And finally, I adhered the intricate rose design on top of the white scallop heart and added both pieces to the lid of the box. It’s so pretty!
I hope today’s project and Lori’s amazing cutting file inspire you. This box and mini album make a beautiful gift idea for Valentine’s Day, a birthday, Mother’s Day, graduation, or any day! Thanks for stopping by the blog and happy scrapping. 😊

Hi everybody, it’s Holly! Today, I’m excited to share a fun “diy” project with you, showcasing the 3D Valentine House Bundle from Lori Whitlock. I’ve turned the Valentine houses into Winter houses. I added some tea lights inside to make the houses light up and it just looks so cute up on my mantle. The warm lights inside the houses adds such a calming peaceful feeling. I made my houses with the I love Winter Collection also from Lori Whitlock. Go in and check out these files, links below.
Happy crafting!
