Valentine's Day

This Valentine’s day, instead of buying the kids those cheap little boxes full of ridiculously tiny paper Valentine’s cards, I decided to make them. I saw this (genius!) idea on Pinterest, and decided to copy it. Immediately.

I took the girls’ pictures outside, and I tried to position their little fists so that there would be room above and below, and the lollipops wouldn’t block their heads. I think Phoebe’s is too low, and their fists should’ve filled more of the image, but whatevs. It’s still going to be cute.

Also? Snapfish was having a deal for 99 cent prints, so I got both of the girls 30 prints each, and the total was less than 5 bucks (with shipping!). All I need now are the lollipops.

Full tutorial here, from 24-7-356. I *almost* made these foam mustaches and lips instead, but the picture idea seemed much easier. Maybe we’ll do the other idea next year.

Oh, Pinterest. What would I do without you?
