Tuesday’s Tutorial {Valentines paper flowers}

Happy Valentines Day! I am excited for today – although yesterday is actually a more special ‘love’ day for us. Alex & I got engaged on the 13th, he just couldn’t wait another day to ask me:) Yes, I am that irresistible!

Seeing as how my Mum is here visiting, she is going to watch the boys tonight and Alex and I are going to get out and go on an actual date tonight… dinner and a movie – I am stoked!!!

Anyway onto the real reason for this post… Every year when Valentines day comes around – the boys send little cards to all of their classmates. This year I wanted to do something a little different. So I went to Walmart and bought a a bag of heart lollipops. I then went through the kids construction paper and gathered all of the red/pink shades, cut them down to the size of printer paper and printed these flowers.

I then cut the flowers out and stuck the lollipops through the middle, and voilà – a Lollipop Flower for each kid!
