When I saw that today's challenge was to use a charm I thought immediately of this heart charm. I bought it months ago, but hadn't found the way to use it. Thank goodness there are challenges.
I used versamark to stamp flourishes on the black and heat embossed with the last of my silver embossing powder. ( I have had the same container of silver for 16 years. Silver was always my last choice to emboss with.) I attached the charm to a piece of ribbon that was attached to the lid of the box with a silver brad. I think I will fill it with... of course CHOCOLATE!!

This box is way too exquisite for just chocolate. SO lovely MariLynn. You did a great job. I think the charm is awesome. Thanks for the link to the tutorial. I am box challenged. Too much of a visual person. TFS...
