Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope you all had a fantastic Valentine's Day with your loved ones! I spent the day running errands and delivering some Valentine treats! I deliver to almost all of my doctors' offices, my trainers, my friends, my customers, and community services like the post office. I love bringing a smile to people's days!

I have a few treats to deliver to those I will see tomorrow, Friday, and Sunday. I have also delivered a bunch of treats last week to many of my customers. If I haven't seen you lately, I have some Valentine's candy treats for you at our next class and meeting.

Have a wonderful day!

Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine Pinwheels

I absolutely loved Julie DiMatteo's Thanksgiving Pinwheel Treat Holder so much that I had to create my own version for Valentine's Day! I followed her measurements but changed the Designer Series Paper, stamp, and colors. I used the Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper and Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper as the pinwheel treat holder bases.

For the inside I used the love image from Labels to Love on Whisper White cardstock with Rose Red ink and layered it on top of a Blushing Bride 1-3/4" circle.

 Inside is a Dove chocolate heart. Yum!

I then made more pinwheel treat holders using the Berry Burst, Fresh Fig, and Powder Pink patterned paper from Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper. When I was finished, the treat holder looked like it was missing the Valentine's theme on the outside. So, I decided to add a tag to the top of the treat holder.

The tag is a 1-1/2" Whisper White cardstock circle stamped with the lined heart image from Heart Happiness layered on a 1-3/4" cardstock circle. Happy Valentine's Day is stamped with the corresponding base color and punched out with the Classic Label Punch.

Inside the treat holder is stamped the love image in Berry Burst ink, Powder Pink ink, and Fresh Fig ink, respectively.

The tag is adhered to the base with a dimensional cut in half on opposite sides of the center of the base. The dimensional is off center to avoid direct contact with the chocolate wrapper.

These treat holders are really cute! I know everyone will enjoy them too!

Chocolate Heart Happiness Treat Bag

I wanted to showcase some of the foil wrapped chocolate hearts instead of covering them up, so I created this simple treat bag tag topper.

The tag topper is made by cutting a 3-1/2" by 2-1/2" piece of Real Red cardstock. I scored it in half with the 3-1/2" edge along the top of the Simply Scored Scoring Tool at 1-3/4".

I burnished the score line and added Tear & Tape along the top and bottom edges of the tag topper.

Next I cut a 1-1/2" by 2-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock, stamped the lined heart image from Heart Happiness with Real Red ink in the center of the cardstock, and stamped Happy Valentine's Day from Teeny Tiny Wishes with Basic Black Archival ink in the center of the heart. Then I adhered the Whisper White cardstock to the front of the Real Red cardstock.

I placed four foil wrapped chocolate hearts into a 2" by 8" cellophane bag, folded over the top, and stapled the bag closed.

I removed the Tear & Tape backing from the tag topper and sandwiched it over the top of the cellophane bag to hide the staples. I pressed firmly along the Tear & Tape to make secure the tag was firmly secured to the cellophane bag.

Your Valentine treat holder bag is ready for gifting!

You can change this design to incorporate your favorite colors or change it to another holiday or occasion. You could definitely jazz this tag topper up with some rhinestones, enamel shapes, or even some glitter! Some glitter paper would be fabulous here too!
