Valentine Cards

Every year we hand make the kids Valentine's cards and this year I was trying to think of something fun, witty, unique and 'cool ' enough for my 4th grade son! He loves anything to do with surfing........so I made surf boards out of poster board and glued a stripe made with scrapbook paper..........


We punched holes and placed a heart lollipop through the surfboards and then cut out a 'bite mark' using jagged scissors.


The cards read 'Eat your heart out--Happy Valentine's day'!! Perfect for fourth grade humor.....



For my daughter's cards......I found cute hot air balloon stickers and placed them on colorful index cards.......




I punched two holes in the index cards and placed a 'blow pop' in each card..............




I then made little tags that read 'I hope this special day has blown you away--Happy Valentine's day'!..........Now I need to start thinking of unique and witty ideas for next years cards heehee!
