Valentine Ideas

from Crafting Chicks:

Pillow Boxes


Another really easy one, I used a project already done at http://www.ggdigitaldesigns.com/. They have lots of darling premade Valentine things. Just printed them, cut out the template, and folded and taped together. Voila. You can fill these with little love treats.



Oh! And I also made these Treat Bag Toppers.



And last, but not least, I made Candy Bar Wrappers!!



Another really simple gift idea for this holiday of love. I made these for Brandon and Annie's school and primary teachers. Again, I used various papers and embellishments from http://www.ggdigitaldesigns.com/ . They are my product endorsement for the day. :) Printed them out, trimmed and used double-sided sticky tape to wrap around Hershey bars.

And I have a treat for you. I made the template to download and use!! I'm sharing the love.

So, I also made a template to use on smaller candy bars, specifically the delicious Kit Kat bar. So here's what it looked like when I was done using the template:

I saved the whole thing as a jpeg, printed it as a 5x7 at Costco and trimmed the extra off (the template is a bit smaller than a 5x7 print). Then wrapped it around the Kit Kats. And here is how they turned out:

{I used the "Amore" kit from the free holiday sampler from www.shabbyprincess.com and stitched felt alpha by Dani Mogstad at www.sweetshoppedesigns.com }

So maybe you were thinking, "Hey, I want to make those too!" Well it's your lucky day, because I have made another template to give to you!

Here's the linky:

Thanks for those who leave comments and thank-yous when they download, it's just so nice. :)

And lastly but not leastly. Last year we had a fun little Valentine's Day dinner with the kids, a little scavenger hunt for surprises, and we had lots of fun playing BINGO with these little Valentine-themed bingo cards I made. I was REALLY nesting, if you can't tell. :)

{I made this with the "Schnookums" digital kit at www.ggdigitaldesigns.com }

Again, printed at Costco as a 5x7 and then I laminated each card. I made 4, one for each of us.


We used little candies to cover the numbers. We'll be bringing these out again this year, it was lots of fun. And here's the bingo template!!! Hooray!!!!
