bubble valentine's cards ...

Non-Candy Valentine Free Printable
My almost four year old Ezra is in preschool this year, which means we had to come up with a fun Valentine for his class mates.

I decided to go with a candy-free valentine, and came up with this little card with mini bubbles attached.  The card says, "Being your friend make me BURST with joy!  Happy Valentine's Day!"

ezra had a great time writing "love" ezra on the back of each card.

then, he helped me attached all the bubbles to the card, and package them up in clear packages for all his friends.

I'm happy they are all ready to go for his Valentine's Day party coming up!

and, guess what?!

I've decided to give some of you a break, and offer a free Valentine's download if you are scrambling for an idea for your little one's Valentine's card's this year.

Download the valentine's card free pdf here.

Here are some supplies you'll need to make the cards: (affiliate links are used in this post)

All you need to do is print out as many of the free pdf downloads as you need, then cut them out. (i used a paper punch corner rounder on the cards)  
print the cards on card stock, and the stickers on the full sheet sticker label paper.  
have your little one sign the back of the card.
label all your bubbles, then glue or tape them to the card, and place them in the clear bags.  

Good luck!!

Let me know if you have any questions.

And, feel free to share this link with your friends!

What kind of lables did you use? I am trying to print them on office depot address label sheets (1"x2-5/8") and they aren't coming out right. Is there anyway you could let me know...I am using them for our mom/tot group Valentin Party! They are just adorable!

Unknown said...

Hi! I have had a few questions about the labels. They work with the full sheet sticker paper. They can be found at office supply stores. The entire sheet is a sticker paper. Then, you cut out any shape you want. The labels will not work with the pre cut shape labels. Only full sheet sticker paper. Hope this helps.

Also. They are the full 8.5 x 11 sheets

Good morning Caroline!

Thank you for sharing your creativity! I wanted to print these out today for my daughter's presents to her classmates on her birthday. I was going to just hide the "Valentines Day" part.

However I am having trouble getting the files. They say they are not available and also have errors. I signed up for LilyPlay and still can not seem to access them. Is it possible to get them still? Take care and thank you again! Wendy
