i’ve been busy designing valentines you can d.i.y. OR d.i.t {do it together} with your little ones by your side….
this d.i.y. set includes a pdf automatic download for 3.5 x 5″ cards in 3 designs and 2 to 4 color schemes. add a simple supply or 2 and quality time crafting with kidlets and that’s all you need to create these fun hand crafted valentines to hand out!
my personal fave…. the googly eyes. find the fun plastic eyes at any craft store or buy a large quantity for about $5 from oriental trading.
whatever you don’t use is sure to come in handy later.
get messy with a little ink then place thumb prints in the shape of a heart. sweet and personal.
tell friends just how big of smartie pants you think they are by tying a roll of smarties to their valentine card.
download is available { H E R E } .
having so much playing with ideas for valentine’s day + have more to come!

Thanks so much for this! Saved me from running right back out of the house to buy cards (we had googly eyes handy!) and was able to get my kid in bed on time! Really appreciate it!
Happy Valentines!

All 3 are so cute! I will do all w/ my 2 church kid groups–elementary and middle schoolers. We have the googly eyes already. I had just purchased the Smarties candies today but needed a card to attach. Wonderful timing! Thanks much! bw

I love the smarties card and plan to let my boys do that for V-Day. Anyway to be able to print ONLY the smarties one and not have to print the other part of that page?
rae

Hi Rae! I love the smarties cards as well. Here in Canada smarties are small chocolates similar to M&M’s, but flat, so we are going to attach small boxes of those to the cards. Would you be able to email the file for just these cards? TIA
Gabi
Hi Rae,
thank you so much for the cute printables! My son is in 5th grade and chose the glasses design for his friends.
I really appreciate that you share these with us. Thank you!
Therese
Sooo adorable! Thank you so much for taking the time to share these. My little 4yr. old chose the googly eyes, my 6 yr. old chose the thumb print, and I will make the Smartie cards to hand out to my 3rd grade class! Perfect & simple :o) ~TM
Sam
I love your designs btw!! Adorable!

These are adorable! My daughter is so excited to give the googly eye one to her classmates. Thanks for making this so easy and do-able and adorable all at the same time!!!
