Valentine's Day is just three weeks away and I've been having lots of fun with the new Sweet Talk Suite from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. Back in December, I created a set of Mini Valentines for my series of sneak peek videos and last week, I shared a quick and easy Valentine treat project during Sunday Stamping with Susan & Julie.
I really love these cute Mini Valentines! They remind me of the Valentine cards we used to exchange in school! I started with a 3-1/2" x 5" note card and cut it in half at 2-1/2". I did some simple stamping on the valentine cards and also added some stamped images to the envelopes. To accommodate the mini cards, I cut the notecard envelopes in half (at 2-5/8") and then sealed the open side with a 1" x 3" piece of designer paper folded in half.
The Note Cards & Envelopes fit perfectly in the Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes, so decorated a box for my mini Valentine's. Just link the mini cards, I kept this really simple and added a piece of 5-1/2" x 5-15/16" (just a "hair" smaller than 6") designer paper and a tag and bow.
When I was in school, most of the valentines we exchanged were just paper valentines. Times have changed and my kids would bring home mostly candy valentines! These cute little treat boxes are just the right size and make and give out for classroom treats! Or share them with coworkers, book club, or Bible Study friends!
The Mini Envelope die in the Sweet Hearts dies reminded me of the old Petal Card Double Punch, so I remade a favorite project from 2010 to create cute little packaging for bite-size candy.
