Images used for Valentine Pillow Box:

Vintage Lace Pillow Box #MC8A932
Heart shape
 
Find the image above in Design Space.  Delete the lace trim layer.  Open the shape tool on the left side tool bar and select heart.  Size heart to fit the pillow box.  Send to cut.  Because there are scoring lines included in the image, Design Space will prompt you to load the stylus or the scoring wheel depending on your machine.  Cut pillow box image and set aside.  Change your materials to glitter vinyl to cut the heart.  Proceed with cut.
 
Fold the pillow box along the straight lines only.
