I went all out this year - I got crafty! Obviously, it was last minute. I mean...some things never change. But still, I think the girls' Valentine cards turned out pretty cute. See for yourself:
#2 is TOTALLY into mustaches. I'm not sure why? Regardless, these were perfect for her!
How'd we do it? We headed outside (for the best light of the day - it was about 5pm) and took a picture in front of our garage door. I made sure to leave the right side of the picture "empty". Then I just added the text in Photoshop. I bought the mustaches at US Toy for something like $5 for a pack of 6. And then #3 just signed her name and used double sided tape to attach the mustache. (We left the back on so the kids could peel off the sticky part and stick the mustache to their face.) Easy!
For #3 and #4, we headed to the Dollar Store to see what we could find. Glow sticks and curly straws made their way home with us. (I love the Dollar Store!) I came up with a couple mock-ups in Photoshop and ta-da! Instant Valentines:
Of course, none of these ideas were mine and I certainly can't take credit. I found them all on my friend, Christi's, pinterest page. Don't you love pinterest? So many good ideas!
I hope you all have a Happy Valentine's Day tomorrow. Personally, I could care less about it but the kids get a kick out of it...
