My Little Valentine and Happy Valentine Heart Treats

Today is the last day to order the Valentine Treat Bundle (132771) and the My Little Valentine Promotion (132242) from Stampin’ Up. With the My Little Valentine Promotion, you get the My Little Valentine stamp set and the Sealed with Sealed Love Simply Sent Kit for $9.95. With the Valentine Treat Bundle, you get the Happy Valentine Heart Single Stamp and a 50-count package of 1″ x 8″ cellophane bags for $5.95. Both of the bundles are available in clear mount only.

Today I’m sharing some treat holders that I made with the two stamp sets. The first treat holder was made using a small sauce jar, I thought that it was the perfect size for a little valentine gift. I’m making these for the teachers for Valentine’s Day.
