Is it a card or is it a box???

A lovely friend of mine called Debbie, created a fantastic 'easel card on top of a box' and I just had to have a go and make one too. Debbie very kindly provided instructions on making the box and the card to pop on top and here's what I made. I love the idea that it's both the card and present. It is for my mum for Mother's Day. Not sure what to pop into the box yet? I used basic white 12x12 cardstock from the Papermill Shop, MME Spring papers - free with Cardmaking & Papercraft magazine this month, Pretty Pottie image from Pink Peticoat coloured with Promarkers. I printed the sentiment on the PC and added a tiny heart punched from pale pink vellum.

I would like to enter it into the current Allsorts challenge, week 36 Hearts and Flowers.
