Personalized SUPERSTAR Valentines

Superstar Valentine

I let both of my kids peruse my Valentine Pinterest board and pick out which idea the wanted to use for their Valentines for this year.  Honor (my 3 year old daughter) chose this fun idea from The Crafting Chicks.

I purchased the star sunglasses from Oriental Trading Company for a great price.  They’re not high quality, but are perfect for a fun favor.  Once the sunglasses arrived in the mail, Honor and I had a little photo session.  Once I got a great shot I did some photo editing with Google+ to add the text (“Happy Valentine’s Day to a SUPERSTAR friend”).  Then I printed out a sheet of 2X2 inch size of the edited photo.

I used a paper cutter to cut down the photos and also to cut pink card stock paper into 2 1/2 X 2 1/2 squares.  Honor helped me glue the photos onto the pink card stock.  Then I used a hole punch to create a hole in the corner of the card.  I used white curling ribbon to attach the card to the sunglasses.

I like that this Valentine includes a photo of her … perfect for her preschool peers that probably can’t read the names on Valentines anyway!  I think they’ll be a big hit at the preschool Valentine party … not to mention loved by friends and relatives that we plan to send them too!
