Every year I say I am going to help my kids make cute, original valentines. And every year, I wait until the last minute and end up with whatever cheap cartoon character cards are left in the bottom of the bins at Walmart.
Not this year, I vowed.
When I saw these adorable DIY valentines from Dandee Designs on Pinterest, I knew I just had to make them. She has a template available to download from her website, making them even easier.
We already had plenty of embroidery thread in our craft room, but once we got started I realized that the punches I had were too small. Instead of buying a larger, $15 paper punch, we just decided to run with strips and change the wording.
These are really simple and can be a great way to spend a few hours with your children, making gifts for their friends.
Way cooler than cheap candy, and they’ll last a lot longer as well!

(Printing on cardstock is best, but regular paper will work fine as well)
Keep on saving! :o)
