Valentine Candy pockets

These are the valentines my kids and I are working on for their friends at school. I used the Cricut to cut the tags and envelopes (Tags, bags, boxes cartridge). Then we embossed the tags with Cuttlebug embossing folders, colored the image with pencils and Twinklette markers, and stamped them with hearts and cute sayings. Lastly I helped staple the candy and a sheer ribbon to the top.
