Something to Celebrate

Happy Valentine’s Day!

February 14, 2011 By Connie | Leave a Comment

I love Valentine's Day! What's not to love?…candy and flowers are the feature of the day! Even when my kids were little, I used to make up favors to go with their little Valentine cards. Remember decorating the shoeboxes? Do they still do that in school? I know I loved it when I was in school!

Here is my last Valentine share for the season. I made up a few special Valentine's for some special people! Really quick and easy…wrap a belly band around a Russell Stover Chocolate Heart Truffle…yummy!

The packaging was already red, so I cut a 1 1/4 x 8" strip of Love Impressions Designer Paper and wrapped it around, secured with Sticky Strip. I used the Scallop Heart of Hearts die in Pink Pirouette cardstock and then added the Red Glimmer Paper Full Heart punch on top. Sweet Valentine, from Stampin' Up!'s Something to Celebrate Hostess Level 2 stamp set, was stamped with Real Red and punched with the Modern Label Punch. I added a Pink Pirouette small heart from the Heart to Heart Punch and a ribbon tail of Pretty in Pink 1/8 Taffeta Ribbon! Oh…there is a Rhinestone jewel in the little pink heart! SO sparkly and pretty in person!

Fun, fun, FUN! I hope they liked them!

Have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
