Valentine Lollipop Cards

With Valentine’s just a few days away, some of you may be panicking! In my house, no matter how crazy life is, store bought Valentine’s just won’t do.  So here are some cute and easy Valentine’s that you can help your children make.

Here’s the supply list:

  • straws
  • small, flat lollypops (not round like dum dums)
  • good double sided tape like redliner taper (available at Walmart)
  • An embellishment for the middle (I found a great pack of glittered foam hearts at Michael’s)
  • scissors
  • cellophane
  • ribbon

Here’s the how-to:

Step 1

Download the Freebie from Polka Dot Potato.

Print the front and back of the Valentine’s.  There are 4 per sheet.

Step 2

Go ahead and fill out the to and from before cutting.

Step 3

Cut each of the Valentine’s out

Step 4

Place the real lollipop stem in the straw to decide proper placement of the digital lollipop print.  Then, tape the digital lollipop to either side of the straw. Replace the real lollipops in the straw if you removed it to tape the digital pieces on the straw. Decorate the center, if desired.

Step 5

Cut a 14″ x 14″ piece of cellophane and wrap the digital lollipop.

Step 6

Use a 14″ piece of ribbon to secure the cellophane.

Present your beautiful Valentine’s in a vase with clear mables in the bottom.
