With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to share something I made for Stephen for our first Valentine's Day. I had so much fun creating this, and it was such a hit! I left it in his bedroom, propped up on his bed, while he was at work. Then when he walked into his room later that night it was the first thing he saw! He loved it.
Here's what it says (in case it is hard to read). The bolded words below are the candy bars I used:
Happy Valentine's Day Big Hunk. I just wanted to Take 5 minutes and tell you that you make me feel like 100 Grand. I sure Skor-ed with you! I have Mounds of fun being such Nerds with you! You are such a Sweet Heart {Tarts}. I couldn't find a better man if I searched the Milky Way. My heart leaps for {Almond} Joy when I see you. You are so Nutrageously sexy! I love you to {Reeses} Pieces and I want to kiss you Now & Later. Being with you is like Pay Day everyday! I hope this card makes you Snicker{s}. I LOVE YOU Baby {Ruth}!
This is simple, adorable & reasonably inexpensive gift for your significant other.
All you need to make this yourself is:
1. Large piece of poster board
2. Hot glue gun (super glue would work too)
3. Sharpie (or markers)
4. Candy bars that put exactly how you feel into words..... in a cute way! I had to go to 3-4 stores around town to find all of the candy bars I was looking for, but it was totally worth it.
5. Embellishments (if you want). I just printed some hearts off of the computer.
6. Think of somewhere fun to place it for a sweet surprise! Some ideas? In your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife's car, somewhere in the house, at their work, or anywhere you could think of that would make their day!
This is such a cute idea! I'd love it if you stopped by my linky party and link up one of your favorite posts! www.serendipityandspice.blogspot.com

ReplyDeleteplastic card printing
Nice thought thanks for share this post this I also share with you something. Avoid the capital expense and overhead of printing plastic ID cards. Printers are costly to buy and maintain, and set-up requires significant time & expertise. They are prone to breakdowns, and require extensive staff training. Purchase your employee identification cards right here. Hassle free!
