- Cut two heart-shapes from chipboard, one slightly smaller than the other.
- Trace both heart-shapes onto paper from Meet Me in Paris Stack. Cut two of each size heart form the paper.
- Cut four 2-inch strips from another Meet Me in Paris paper. Adhere 2 sets of strips together to make two long strips. Score and fold each strip at ¼ inch along the entire length of the strips. Cut ¼ inch slits along the edge to the fold line creating small tabs.

- Adhere the paper-heart shapes from step 2 to the front and back of each heart. The small heart should fit inside the large heart creating a finished box.
