Last Sunday while Todd was away watching the Super Bowl the girls and I decided to make Valentines. In the past we have used store bought boring Valentines cards, it's what the girls wanted. It seems since my girls have been in school it's a big thing to have candy attached to the card. When I was in school you just got the paper valentine and that was it. Times they have changed! Anyway I found these cute and super easy cards for Emily. I tried to link back to where the original came from hope I got that right. The blog was 24-7-365. I asked my Sis-in-law Laura to add the text to the picture I had taken of Emily and then she ordered them for me from Wal-mart. I picked them up the next evening. So fun! I used those mat stacks from the goodwill to add sturdiness to the back of the picture they were just what I needed and I didn't even know it when I bought them. I hole punched the picture and added the sucker. I think Emily's class will just love these.
I was excited at the way these turned out I think they are just so unique!
Kylie is in 5th grade now and instead of Valentines parties they do some sort of community service project that day. She made just a few of these for her close friends. I found the dot candy at Walgreens. These were fast and fun to make too. Perfect for kids that are just crazy over cell phones right now. She added a text message to the inside. Something like U R Gr8!
Today I got busy making the cupcakes for Emily's class party too. I think they turned out pretty and can't wait to see the kids enjoy them. I just love going to the parties at school and helping out. The kids are so much fun to watch and interact with.

HELLO!!! Emily's cards turned out awesome! They look so stinkin' cute...don't tell her I said they were "cute" though :) She wouldn't like that! Kylie's phones are really neat too! What fun little projects! I'm hoping to finish Barrett's Valentine's soon, and am going to attempt a new treat this evening!
p.s. If you have any extra cupcakes, you know where to bring them!
Both idea's are suppppper cute. Love Emily's....I bet the kids are impressed.
I would take some of those cupcakes too.
