Hi There! How was the weekend? We had time some quality with friends, a family bday lunch, birthday parties, basketball games, did writing for work and playdates. But I still found time to get my craft on.
I REALLY love Valentine's Day. Especially making valentines.
Supplies: tissue paper, whole punch, 3" inch scallop paper punch, lollipops
Punch out 10 layers of tissue paper.
You'll need 20 layers of the scallops for each lollipop.
Punch a hole in the middle of your layers.
Pop your lollipop through. You may want to trim the bottom of the wrapper off.
Crinkle up the petals. Hold that thought-- (and that flower).
Supplies Needed for the "b": Green and white cardstock, heart punch, googly eyes, crafters glue, florist's wire, a saucer (for tracing a leaf), pom poms. Letter stickers for "b mine."
The edge of the saucer makes a good "leaf"
It's pretty long because you need room for letter stickers.
Punch a hole in your leaf.
Add the stickers...
To make the "b", punch a heart out of white cardstock.
Snip off the top and cut it in half to make wings.
Cut two small pieces of wire, about 3 inches and curl around pencil to make antennae. Stick them into pom pom.
.
Glue the googly eyes and wings on.
Lollipop project inspired by Scrapbooks Etc.

I love this! So incredibly sweet and simple. Your ideas are always so fabulous. :)

We did these last year, but without the bug. I wish I had thought of the bug...
Love them!

So Cute!! I'm going to see if I can get Anika to agree to make these for her class Valentines. Love it!! (In truth they may not be as elaborate, but we might go for a basic flower around a lollipop.)
