I have a fun non-candy Valentine idea for your little ones to pass out this year!
They are cookie cutter Valentines, and they are just about the cutest Valentines you've ever seen!
They come with a free printable to make putting them together super simple!
Cookie Cutter Valentines
I found these adorable nested heart cookie cutters in the Dollar Spot at Target.
A dollar! Can you believe it?
Well you better believe that I snatched up quite a few of them, not knowing at the time exactly what I would do with them.
I love the bright colors and, since they are plastic, they are not sharp so no worries about any of the kids hurting themselves on them.
Note: If you missed these at Target don't fret. You can find them elsewhere including here. The deal is not as good, but not horrid. Or you could get this set of 32 cookie cutters if you don't mind they are not all hearts.
Download and print my cookie cutter Valentine cards then cut into individual cards.
Punch a hole in the cards and at the top edge of the cookie cutter.
A Crop-A-Dile will cut through these plastic cookie cutters like buttah (that's southern for butter).
(If you don't have a Crop-A-Dile I highly recommend getting one. They are so handy to have in your craft stash!)
Use twine or ribbon to tie the card to the cookie cutter.
That's it!
Isn't that simple?
My son is super excited to pass these cookie cutter valentines out to his classmates.
They take a cooking class at their school so I know they all love to be in the kitchen!
This is also a fun keepsake that they can use for years to come.
All we have left is writing the "to" and "from" on the back.
>> See where I party! <<
