Rolo Pencil Valentines

Here is what we decided to do for the teachers for Valentine's Day.  I saw these on Pinterest here and I thought they would be easy enough....and they kind of were...just time consuming and the cardstock paper is kind of hard to work with especially when you are trying to get it tight around the rolos.

Right after I took this picture we put them in a bag for my daughter to take to school and low and behold before we could get out the door our dog, Ginger ate one whole pencil including the paper, kiss, string and all.  She was feverishly working on the second one when we caught her.  Needless to say she spent the rest of day OUTSIDE. 

Gotta love a dog.

So only my daughter's most "favorite" teachers got one.

Homemade Popcorn Valentine!

Printable Popcorn Valentine Tag

I found these vintage Valentine images here and thought this was too cute not to do.  My husband isn't a big sweet eater but loves popcorn.  Here's how I made his Valentine.

1. Open the popcorn Valentine up in Microsoft Word and added a blue beveled border.
2. Print out on cardstock
3. Cut around border.
4. Affix using double sided tape to regular bag of individually wrapped popcorn.
5. Last I wrapped it up using a left over ribbon from Christmas
6. Ta-Da, an easy homemade Valentine that he will think is corny (like everything else I do).

Update: 2014  This post was so popular I searched back through my files and found it and am now offering it to you as a printable!
