Lunchbox Note Die Valentines

When I saw these Lunchbox Note dies during Papertrey's January release, I thought that they would make ADORABLE Valentines for my oldest son's preschool class. I thought it would be cute with one of PTI's small glassine bags tucked inside with a little treat. Wouldn't ya know that those little glassine bags are the PERFECT size! So, this is what I came up with:

Here they are all grouped together. I love how coordinating projects look in groups like this!

This is the inside. There are 2 heart shaped Hershey chocolates in that little bag. Fits perfect. I did put a dab of re-positionable glue on the flap so the treats wouldn't pop open in transit to school.

This is a close up of the girls' treat. My son picked out the cupcake image from Tiny Treats: Valentines. I love that I got to decorate it all girly since I have 3 boys.

And this one is for the boys. It had to be approved by DJ to make sure that it was "boy" enough!

Thanks for stopping by!
