Simple Gifts: Valentine Kids
For a cute and inexpensive way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, order a couple sheets of photo labels for all your kids (and you too) to make treats for the special people in your lives. I love the idea of having your photo on sweet little goodies. All you have to do is put the label on and hand them out! Simple and quite sweet. You will be remembered.
How to make your Valentine treats:
The Carson Kids are on After Eights, little square mints covered in chocolate and slipped into a dark brown paper sleeve. Use square label in Tiny Charms style; I selected the hearts border in pink.
The young lady is on Reese’s peanut butter cup miniatures, with shape 28 label in Cara style, spice color. Put the label on the top as in this photo, and they will stick out a little bit, very cute!! Or put the label on the bottom if you don’t want them to stick out.
The little boy and the smiling baby are on Hershey’s Nuggets with a shape 02 label. I used the Hershey’s silver nuggets for the smiling baby, and the Hershey’s gold extra dark for the little boy. For the label style, I selected “Custom” and uploaded a photo.The photos have just a plain background on the sides, and the childrens’ faces are in the middle of the label.
