It's been many years since I have had any personal experience passing out Valentine day cards. When I went to school Valentine day cards, included candy. I was shocked to learn that in some schools candy isn't even allowed. Of course, I realize why and want to be respectful SO for Grace's preschool Valentine's...
We opted for a
dino-mite theme. I found a package of 12 plastic dinosaurs at Party Central for $3.
Using my Silhouette, I drew out a stegosaurus pattern {if you want to use mine, send me an email and I'll send you the file}. Then, using some colorful card stock, I cut out a dozen stegosaurus.
I used some bakers twine to affix the dinosaurs to the stegosaurus cut out.
So, even though I have seen this idea done several different ways, I have high hopes that the 3 year old crowd will be impressed.
Here's hoping that you also have a
dino-mite Valentine's day!
Love this!! Sure wish I had a silhouette :(
ReplyDeleteThank you for the feedback. Though my silhouette is nice, sometimes, believe it or not sometimes it's quicker to cut things out by hand.
DeleteSuch a sweet idea! Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I'd love to do this for my son's preschool Valentines. If you send the template is it only for Sihouette or can I hand cute them??
ReplyDeleteHand cutting could definitely be done, it just might take a while and may cause a temporary case of carpal tunnel :)...but it can be done.
