Welcome! I’m sharing a fabulous valentine gift set with products from the Love You Always suite. Are you ready to get a head start creating your valentine cards and treats? We will be using a little old, a little new and lots of shine and sparkle.
Elisabeth, my granddaughter will be receiving this one from Nana. I love everything about this sweet Valentine gift set. The simplicity both the card and box allows you to crate multiples quick and easy. Don’t like to cut and score treat boxes? You don’t have to, Stampin’ Up! has already taken care of that for you. On page 11 of the new Jan-June Mini Catalog, you’ll find the Love You Always Treat Boxes.
My sweet girl likes things shiny and sparkly. I think this card fits the bill.
I love making my own custom embellishments. And that’s just what I did on this one. Because I used the dies in the Be Mine Stitched set to my advantage, I was able to step things up.
Be sure to check out the Annual Catalog as well. That’s where you will find the “A Grand Kid” set. If you have grandkids, this is the set for you.
These little boxes measure 4 1/16″ x 2 11/16″ x 1 1/2″. That’s a very generous size to fill with your kiddos favorite chocolates.
One of the best parts is that you don’t need any glue when constructing the box. It’s an interlocking design, so sturdy and easy to decorate.
Ready to create a batch of your own? I’ll show you how.

Classroom Valentine treats just got a whole lot easier with my Valentine Pencil Holder. You can find Valentine themed pencils at your local Dollar Tree. They are sold in packages of 12. That makes the treat economical and no worries about food allergies.
The Heartfelt Bundle to the rescue yet again. This is the third Valentine project I’ve created this week. I’ve shared lots of ideas to make your Valentine treat making easy.
The fabulous From My Heart Suite of products is filled with all things Valentine. Did you notice the sweet little heart tins? I used those to bake sweet treats at a recent club party.
Super cute, right? Now you’ve got even more ideas for your valentine. But for now, let’s get back to the quick and easy little Valentine pencil holder.
Using the punches in the bundle to stack multiple images gives this project that little something extra. Let me show you how to create this one.

Wish we could be together swapping chocolates and laughing over candy hearts. But, since we can’t, let’s create a sweet little Valentine Slider Box.
Little Debbie is a great supplier of treats for every holiday season. Valentine’s Day is no exception. If you are on the hunt for the Strawberry Heart Cakes, search no more. I’ve got a link to their product site here.
Could the colors match any better? I’ve used Flirty Flamingo, Real Red and Whisper White for my color palette. My valentine slider box can be created with just one sheet of the Flirty Flamingo Cardstock.
Just slide the box from the wrap to reveal the treat. Because the From My Heart Suite contains so many coordinating projects, I decided to throw those in as well. Be sure to add the sweet doilies, faceted gems and ribbon to your order. You’ll thank me later.

Don’t pass up the Heartfelt bundle, thinking it’s only for Valentines. You can use the stamp set and punches for birthdays, weddings, showers, thinking of you and so much more. By creating the swee bellyband, I had a fabulous opportunity to kick it up a notch with my embellishments.
Not to mention, you just slip it off to get to the goodies on the inside. And who knows, maybe the reciepient will clip off the focal image to use in a scrapbook page or card. I love when we pay it forward.

Now your special someone has a cake in a mug to celebrate this special day. So see, you can use the treat for birthdays as well.
Using the punches in the set to stack different papers really adds to the dimension on the bellyband. The heart on the left was punched from the coordinating From the Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper in the suite. The pack contains gorgeous paper with beautiful foiling.
To add a little sparkle, I’ve used the From My Heart Faceted Gems. You just gotta pick up a couple of containers. The gems come in three colors and sizes and can be used on so many projects. Add in a package of the sweet heart doilies while you’re there. I’ve got a video tutorial on my YouTube Chanel.

Need some quick and easy Valentine Treats? I’ve got just the answer for you. Wouldn’t it be fun to leave a little something something for a friend, co-worker, postal worker, UPS driver, nail technician, hairdresser and so many more? I’ve got some Valentine Treats that you can whip out in no time at all.
First, visit your local Dollar Tree. There are sooooo many cute candies you can dress up and make fancy. The cute little jar and M&M Holder were Dollar Tree finds. The cello bag is a Stampin’ Up! product and they are food safe. Because we sell those in packs of 25, it makes gift giving economical.
OMG, this one is so quick and easy and takes minimal supplies. I used the Labels to Love stamp set for my sentiment. I stamped on Whisper White cardstock, then punched with he 1 3/4″ circle punch. To add a little bit of fancy, I punched a starburst from our gorgeous Vellum cardstock.
That gorgeous ribbon is our Lovely Lipstick stitched ribbon. It ties so pretty and is super soft. You can add any little tag, but this one is a die cut from our Bouquet Bunch dies.
The super beautiful Lovely Lipstick foil paper makes this treat extra special. The treat bag is our 3″ x 6″ gusseted bag. And the foil paper was cut to 3″ x 3 1/2″ and run through the Big Shot with the Tufted Embossing Folder. If you would like to see me create any or all of these Valentine Treats, visit my Facebook WOW NOLA Creations page. I went LIVE, Sunday, January 13, 2019 and created each of these during the broadcast.
Last, but not least, is the cute little M&M Holder. You guys have seen these for every occasion under the sun. But, they aren’t very attractive on their own. Add a little ink, stamps and paper and you have a super cute Valentine Treat sure to WOW anyone!
