(If you are interested in this fun project, but are not sure how to digi-scrap, hop on over here for a mini-tutorial.)
Valentine Candy Wrappers!!
1. Step One: Get Supplies
You will need (not much at all, peeps!):
- Aluminum foil
- Regular sized Hershey Bars, or similar size candy
- A computer, a photo-edit program, and a color printer and paper
- A digi-scrapping kit of your Valentine's liking: (I found my gawgeous confection wrapper kit at this great site: The Shabby Shoppe)
- scissors (I used pinking-shears for fun)
- tape or glue
2. Step Two: Download your Digi-Kit and design away...
I used a Confection Kit, and imported pics of my kids onto the design:
3. Step Three: Print out your creation on regular paper
4. Step Four: Cut out pics with scissors or cute shears
5. Step Five: Wrap up your candy with foil:
6. Step Six: Tape (or glue) your handmade candy wrapper to the foil-wrapped bar:
Be sure that you center your picture on the front:7. Step Seven: Be sure to personalize your cute candy, and then give it away with LOVE:
Voila! A cheap and creative way to spread God's Love this Valentine season!!

Super cute and I love your blog layout...gorgeous.
What a fun idea! Yummy too!
Thanks for checking out Just a Blink!
I'll see you around.
Happy Valentine's Day!
What a neat idea, thanks for sharing!
I LOVE these! What a great idea! Not only did you have a fun time creating them, but people will just love receiving them (and the entire bar of chocolate inside!). I really want to get into digiscrapping. I'm just not sure where the time will come, or the money to acquire that software! Thanks for letting me vicariously live through you. :)
What a sweet idea!
They look great Darlene! I wish I had more time to make those for Jonah ... he actually had his class exchange today because he has off school for the next 5 days! So, I will have to keep them in mind for next year!
These are really, really cute! Who knew the steps to such cuteness were so simple?! Thanks!
This was so much fun! I made these for friends of ours and our children for Valentine's Day. What a HUGE hit! Everyone was sure NOT to forget them on the way out and felt so extremely special that I made them! How fun and easy.
Great idea for birthday gifts, mother's day, father's day.
Thanks for sharing!! We LOVED it!!
