DIY Butterfly Valentines Day Card Box Holder

From the blogger: "Does working on Valentine’s Day cards with the kids want to make you reach into a six pack? Re-purpose a cardboard six-pack beverage carrier into a cute and practical carrier for Valentine's Day goodies. Use colored scrapbook or card stock paper to cover the six-pack carrier and transform it into a sweet butterfly, perfect for a little girl taking her stack of love notes to school for her friends and classmates. Additionally, it serves as an easy way to bring her Valentine's home with its built-in carrier handle and divided box. No more decorated shoe boxes!"
