Valentine Heart Challenge

Hey Everyone!  Jayne has selected a fun challenge over at Bitten by the Bug.  It is a Valentine heart challenge, and for me, this was right on time.  I needed to get started on treats for my kids' classes.  Now that they are in elementary school, their class sizes are much bigger.  I have to make 50 of these babies!

All you have to do to join in on the challenge this week is create a card or project with a Cricut heart cut.
This cute angel heart cut comes from Create-a-Critter 2 and is sized at 2.5 in.  

 To make these, I just trimmed and stapled two 1x8 clear bags from Jaded Blossoms to the shadow layer.  Then I glued the top layer over it.


I think they came out pretty cute so far.  So we hope to see you link up your heart project this week!  In the meantime, I'll be working on the other 40 something of these!

I'm also linking up this week with:

And if you need another Valentine treat idea, these are the treats I made last year using My Craft Spot stamps and Create-a-Critter 2:

    1. So far these have really been some of the easiest treats I've made. The hardest part is filling the bags with candy. I create an assembly line of all my cuts and work a little quicker like that.
