First we made Lana's, a butterfly holding a sucker. I did most of the work, but Lana added the stickers and picked up all the scraps and threw them away. Such a helper! Lana's teachers asked that the cards not be addressed to a specific child, as it would be harder for her to hand them out that way, this way she can just put one in each bag...gosh I hope they hold up...she might get upset if they all start falling apart on her.
Then we made Tristan's, an autographed baseball being hit by a bat. The bat says "you're a home run friend!". Tristan traced a cup to make the baseballs and autographed all 21 of them. He also glued the balls to the bats. I did the cutting and the rest of the writting for him. Tristan was not a big fan of the autographing, if he is ever famous I will remind him of this day, getting him to write his name 21 times was not easy...TRUST ME!!
So here is the finished product. Grand total for Valentines to friends $4.00, the price of the heart shaped suckers, and 4 hours of fun (hope it was fun) craft time. We finished at 1 pm.
