Today's post is brought to you by Saint Valentine. My son, James, and I had to make a "bazillion" valentines for school (really only about 25, but you know how kids will exaggerate). We chose a simple and not to "girly" a design and knocked them out. I had purchased some Jolly Rancher lollipops and we built a little cover for them. The dimensions are 6 1/4 inches by 2 3/4 inches. Score the paper at 1/4, 3, 3 1/4, and at 6 inches. Fold along the score lines. Punch a hole in the bottom for the stick and add your embellishments. I used a retired SU set called "Whooo's your Valentine". It hard to find something valentine without being mushy. I then added his named stamped on the back, because he was exausted (read: bored) and just couldn't find the energy to sign his name so many times. Luckily, I had a wonderful clear mount alphabet called Rough Type. I could just make his name, stamp and punch. Easy Peasy. Then, I repeated the task with Jake only in Wild Wasabi. Thankfully, this holiday is over for the year.
What a fun Valentine's project.
