DIY Valentine’s Day Andes Mint Matchbox
Back in November I shared a Now, Wow, or Holy Cow video and free tutorial download with you featuring my Andes Mints Matchboxes. WOW! You guys went CRAZY for them and that made my heart very happy. If you missed the video, CLICK HERE to view it.
Last night over on YouTube, I did a YouTube LIVE (my first YouTube Live – eek!) and it was a blast! I hope you enjoy creating along with me in this video.

Today I wanted to show you the Valentine version of the Andes Mint Matchbox. We still have time until the big lovey-dovey day so you have time to create this sweet gift! They are easy, affordable, and all you need are a few basic supplies.
The box I want to show you today is just a little bit different than my original. I made a cover for my mints. Since they are green and green isn’t very Valentiney, I created a fun little flap for them (measurements are listed below).

What a great idea. Will have to try and make some in the future. I am out of sorts right now. Fractured hip and not really able to make cards for do anything right now. Too much going on with homecare therapist and healthcare folks. But, will keep this in mind for later. How about St. Patrick’s Day. That would really be a great project !
Maureen, I am late in responding but I do hope you are on the mend now!
Thank you for this awesome video ! I don’t know how I missed this – guess I was just too busy with the holidays – but I am going to make this cute cute cute box ! I love the gift card idea – so so useful anytime of the year ! Magic !
I’m so glad you liked it!
