First off…
Happy Valentine’s Day!!
I hope you all are having a LOVE-ly day! Really quickly I just wanted to show you Noah’s Valentine’s cards this year, I think they turned out so cute! This is the first year we have officially done Valentine’s since he is my oldest and this is his first year of preschool. I was originally planning on just buying those pre-made ones that come with candy cause well, why not? But then on Friday I showed him the Valentine card from 24-7-365 and he got really excited and wanted to do them…I was like, “Okay!!” You don’t have to twist my arm kid!
I took a few pictures, picked the best one and then sent them off to Costco. They were ready to pick up that afternoon…easy peasy and oh-so-cheap (13 cents a print!) I totally want to do these every year now!! Here’s how they turned out:
I added some funky little hearts down the side and wrote ‘Happy Valentine’s Day!’ across the top using my most favorite site Picnik.
Here’s the final product–with candy. Don’t you just love a picture of a picture 🙂
Noah carefully signed his name to the back of each one, as well as one for each of his three teachers. He is so excited to hand these out at school, although I think he was getting a little worried that all the lollipops were going into the cards and none would be left for home. I told him I was sure he would get plenty of treats to bring back home…what no candy left for us, unheard of!
Okie dokie, that is all…now go enjoy your Valentine’s day with all the ones you love.
We are going to indulge in some of these…

Mmmm….chocolate 🙂
If that isn’t the cutest Valentine’s card I have ever seen. I have to share this one with my daughter for next year! Happy Valentine’s Day!
We are sooooo doing these next year!! Fun!
So cute and Noah’s gorgeous face makes it even better 🙂
Ummmm have i been sleep walking as I read my reader? When did Mamma Bear switch to Maggie?
Not judging (oh ma’an I liked Mamma bear) just wonderin’

What a great Idea! I LOVE the valentines card! It has to be one of the most adorable concepts I have seen in a while!
At first I was wondering why you had him pose that way, thinking it was odd – the finished product is fab! ~Ethne

Those came out wonderful. Love the idea 🙂
We did the same card this year too, and my kids LOVED it!!! I think Picnik is the best thing EVER!!! It makes these projects so quick, easy and cute!
Noah is so cute! The cards turned out great!!
They are a-DOR-able! I’m sure they were a hit.
Very cute! We did something similar. My daughter was holding her hands out in the photo and we slipped a couple of Valentine’s sily bands through so it looks like she’s holding them in her hands. The kids loved them!
I am SO going to do that next year!!
Oh my goodness I love it! You are awesome!
Fantastic idea!
LOVE those cards, wow! How clever!! Those strawberries looks delish 😀
cool
cute-Cute-CUTE!!! I love this and am gonna remember it for next year to use with my twins at Story Time 🙂 Thanks!
Also love your mini bolts of fabric that you have… you’re the 2nd blog I’ve seen this past week with a set up like that and I’m thinking I’m gonna try doing the same soon with my shelves…
Love from Texas! ~bonnie
