Valentines




I thought I would make some valentines for my music students. They were very simple to make! The lines across the card make it so you have to take the candy through the "maze" in order to eat it.

1. Print a message on festive paper. Your heart needs to be a least 5.5x5.5

2. Cut out the heart from paper and another heart slightly larger from a sheet protector.

3. Sew the paper and the plastic together. Be sure to back stich leaving a 2 inch space on one side (for the candy to slide out).

4. Add the candy to the card. I found 10 to be a good number.

5. Sew two strait lines 2/3rds of the way across to create a maze.

6. Write a message on the back.
Who in your life is going to be lucky enough to get a valentine from you? Nothing says "I love you" more than a homemade valentine.
