Connie, THANK YOU! Thank You! Thank You! I can't express my gratitude enough for all the time and effort you put into creating both your written tutorials and videos that you give so freely to us. As a beginner("newbie") at card and paper making projects, I am so personally grateful to have found you, your web site, store and your KZbin channel. You are so thorough in providing easy to understand and follow instructions on your projects. I know you put in a lot of time and effort into creating them and I know everyone appreciates your creativity. Please know you are my "goto" Stampin' Up demonstrator of choice for the help you provide and for purchasing supplies.

[@simplysimplestamping]

You have no idea how perfect your timing was with these comments. You have made my day so much brighter.

[@warntha1]

@@simplysimplestamping You are welcome. I sincerely meant all I said.

[@roxanningraffia877]

Thank you for these awesome ideas. The color combination & using Hand Penned was a definite WOW! Using these for Christmas! Perfect…as always, my creative friend.

[@simplysimplestamping]

Roxann, you are very welcome. So glad you liked it.

[@juliefackler270]

[@wendyzilli9735]

Fantastic idea. Thank you for sharing❤️

[@simplysimplestamping]

Wendy, Thank you so much 😊

[@joymoss1898]

You know, I wonder if money can fit flat in the box under the candy. Rather than a gift card, we give our adult daughters and our one son-in-law money every year. We find weird ways to present it. It would be hilarious that they each get a box that think that that is all they are getting for Christmas! ;)

[@simplysimplestamping]

Joy, you could sure give it a try.

[@janebutts9147]

Thank you very much!

[@simplysimplestamping]

Jane, you are very welcome.

Great ideas

[@simplysimplestamping]

Joan, Thank you! 😊

[@johnnaclarke4014]

Just when I think you can't get any more creative, you show something like this! How neat! I have a challenge for you: my husband and I don't exchange big gifts for Christmas - just small stocking stuff type things - but he doesn't care for chocolate - can you imagine? Can you please create and share a project that is something on the order of these simple projects, yet don't involve chocolate?? Thank you so much for sharing you creativity with us!

[@simplysimplestamping]

Johnna, I can certainly make a note.

[@rfowler6039]

Connie, you've done it again...perfect video at the perfect time for what I want/need! Thanks! 😊

[@simplysimplestamping]

Colleen, I am so glad you like it.

[@nancyripley2073]

You had a video several years ago for the Andes Candies decorated box and I made them for all of my co-workers for Christmas. Making these was so addictive that I made extras! I am so glad to see the directions for these decorated, and enhanced, boxes again! Thank you, Connie!

[@simplysimplestamping]

Nancy, I am so glad you enjoy them.

[@patriciagraham4786]

Thank you Connie. These are such pretty and easy to do. And thank you for providing a download of the directions.

[@simplysimplestamping]

Patricia, you are very welcome. I am so glad you enjoy them.

[@amjPeace]

How about a Bow-Wow version? I am making about 15 of these for choir and friends, so I'm wimping out by leaving the plastic wrapper on the package of candy, and just slipping it into the sleeve. Mwahaha! And as a bonus, it removes the temptation to eat any of the candies.

[@simplysimplestamping]

Smart idea to remove the temptation.

[@dma8807]

Love all versions of this decorated box! 👍🏻 Thanks for your creative ideas and instructional videos!

[@simplysimplestamping]

You are so welcome!

[@terrie1226]

Well done....my best friend loves Andes candy...perfect little gift.
