Valentines

This is the Valentine that my almost 3 yo and I made. I tried to make it simple to keep his attention. It turned out a little more complicated than I intended but he did pretty well. He loves to stamp with me, so this was a fun thing for us to do, even if it did take us 4 days to do 8) I used Stampin' Up's new heart shaped treat cups filled with peanut M&Ms (note to self, use regular M&Ms or smaller candies next time). These treat cups are really fun to use, but there is a small learning curve to getting it right with a way to get the treats out.

This is a super cute treat box that I saw. You can find the directions here.
And this is the inside. It was designed to hold a Hershey's marshmallow heart. I didn't even know there was such a thing, but it was something my son would love so I bought one and that's what he got for V-day.
This is a just a card I made for fun. I copied it almost exactly from this blog, except I used a slightly different design paper, but from the same pack.

This is a card that I made for a card exchange last year, but never posted. I'm posting it here because I got the idea from the same blog post as the above card. This one I changed quite a bit. I changed the colors, I embossed the white panel, and used different stamp sets.


So there you go. Happy Valentine's Day a few days late.
