Sour Cream Container Valentine

"Whale" You Be Mine?
Sour Cream Container Valentine

I don't know if you all have ever made sour cream containers before, but I love to make them because there is no die of any sort required!  Just some paper, adhesive, and a paper crimper and you can whip a bunch of these babies out in no time :)

By using some cute whale paper and these stamps from stampin' up, I was able to create a one of a kind valentine for family and friends. I highly suggest trying to create some of your own.

Here is the tutorial:

Enjoy!  And let me know if you try this out!

"You Color My World" Valentine

You Color My World Crayon Pocket Valentine!

Welcome back everyone for another valentine treats idea! I absolutely love this idea as an alternative to candy, and I know it is something my 4 year old would love.

All this project takes is some card stock, designer/patterned paper, and adhesive (how simple right?!). This little crayon pocket holds an 8 pack of crayons perfectly and would be a great addition to a coloring book.  

If you don't have a stamp that says "You Color My World" no worries because you can just type it up on your computer, print it off, and punch it out!

Enjoy the tutorial here:

Hello Everyone!  Here is the second of my valentine treats paper crafts :) This is one of those projects that would work well for classroom valentines, and is one of my favorites!

All you need is some pencils, chocolate (I used Ghirardelli and York Peppermint Patties), card stock, a heart punch, and a regular hole punch to whip out these lollipop impersonators! ;)

"Bee" Mine Valentine


"Bee" Mine

It's a new year and I have a lot of new things going on! Our first paper craft of the new year though is all about our January theme, 'Valentine Treats'! 

With a couple pieces of card-stock, a few punches, letter stamps, and some Burt's Bees lip balm we are able to create this adorable Bee Mine Valentine :) I love how these turned out, and love how easy they are to make even more!
