Arrow Pencil & Heart for Valentine's Day

Hi everyone!!!

This time we'll make a super-easy craft which can bail out any dad or mom on Valentine's Day.
It's so easy because you only need to print a heart template with the phrase you want to express what you feel for a special person.

For this activity you'll need the following:

Materials:

• Printer
• Construction paper (red, pink, purple or any colour you want)
• Valentine pencils
• Hole punch
• Scissors

How to do it:

• First, we need to print the heart template with an inside Valentine's phrase. (ex: "Thanks for being my friend")

• Then we need to cut out the hearts and we'll make 2 holes with the hole punch (as shown in the picture). In these 2 holes we'll introduce the pencil (arrow) of our heart.

• And remember!!! Don't forget to write the name's person on the back of the heart before you put the pencil.

• And voila!!! We make a cute and easy present to share on Valentine's Day.

Thanks for reading my blog from the bottom of my heart!!! And until next time!!!

How to Make Treat Bag Toppers for Valentine's Day

Hi, everyone!!!

Today we are going to make some treat bag toppers. For Valentine's Day I think it is fun to create our own Valentine's.
This is a fantastic idea as a Valentine's Day present and a very easy craft to make, in which our little ones can help and have fun at the same time.

For this craft we will need the following.

Materials:

• Glue 
• Scissors
• Cardboard (pink & red)
• Pencil
• Hot glue gun
• Stickers
• Treats for bags
• Baggies
• Printed tags onto white paper (example: "Thanks for be my friend")

How to do it:

• Let's first draw and cut out a rectangle on the pink cardboard (which has the same width as the plastic bag, and twice the height we want to give to the bag topper)
• Now, fold bag toppers in half.
• We also print and cut out the phrase we chose to thank the person we're going to give the treat bag.

• Now, we'll staple the bag topper on the plastic bag that is already filled with your favorite candy.
• The next step is to glue the white paper (with the printed phrase) on the bag topper.  (as shown in the picture).

• Finally, we'll decorate the bag topper with stickers or any detail that we want.
• If you want to achieve a 3D effect, glue a little piece of foam before placing the stickers to emphasize every detail.

And presto!!! We have a beautiful and sweet detail to sweeten the day to any friend or classmate.

Note: If you don't have a printer at hand, don't worry! You can decorate these bag toppers with only the stickers and put your name on the back and to whom it is addressed. (as I show you in the picture).

I send sweet kisses!

How to Make Valentine's Cards

Hello everyone!

Soon it will be February and therefore Valentine's Day.
And a good option is to give away little cards as a sign of our love for others.
This time we will make our own cards in which can participate our little ones.

For this activity we will need the following:

Materials:

• Construction paper (red & pink)
• White paper (bond)
• Stickers (or any embellishment we have at home)
• Hot glue gun
• Pencil
• Ruler
• Glue or glue stick
• Scissors

How to do it:

• First thing we need to do is print any image we like on bond paper. (I printed the phrase "Happy Valentine's Day", but can be whatever you like it more).

• We will draw and cut a rectangle on the construction paper (pink or red)  with a card measures. (I cut different sizes of cards. 4 x 6, 3 x 5, & 3 x 3).But this depends on the size you want your cards to be. 
• You're going to cut the phrases you printed on the bond paper, (as shown in the picture).

• Now we will fold in half the construction paper to make our Valentine's card.
• Then, we'll glue the white paper (with the printed phrase) on our card.

• Then we'll start decorating our card with stickers or any paper embellishment that we find at home. I used a paper trim that I had bought last year at the dollar store.

•  For the stickers to have a 3D effect, you can put a little piece of foamy before you attach the sticker to the card.

• And presto! When you finish adding all the details you want, you'll have a beautiful Valentine's card!

• Here I leave other cards that my little daughter and I made, to her classmates and the teacher. 
• And remember!!! The imagination is endless; you just have to dare to create a new project!!!

Happy Valentine's Day in company of your loved ones!

Kisses and more kisses from Julieta!!!
