Hi all, Mimi here! Valentine's Day...the sweetest day of the year is here and I wanted to share a cute and super simple way to show someone you care! My boys have been blessed to have some absolutely amazing teachers and this year is no exception. Both the boys and I like to give something a little special to their teachers along with a card. This year I bought some Hershey Milk Chocolate bars and dressed them up. I used yummy products from both the February Main Kit and February Frugal Fab Kit. I simply wrapped some pattern paper around each bar and embellished the top of it with goodies from the kits.
I know their teachers will love finding this little treat in their Valentine's bags.
This would also be a great little treat attached to a package or given to nieces, nephews, grandchildren or little neighbor kids.
I would like to issue a little challenge to you all to create a sweet valentine project for your sweet. Link it up here in the comments on this blog post. We would love to see it!
And as our way of saying "We Heart you".. here at Scarlet Lime.. today we will giveaway to one lucky blog reader a $50.00 Gift Certificate to the Brand NEW Scarlet Lime shop which will have its grand opening on Wednesday night!
(here is a peak at some of the fun goodies going to be available in the shop)...
Just post leave us a comment on today's blog post about what YOU love today.. and you will be entered to win a gift certificate for $50.00 to the new online shop!!
Watch for the Grand opening Wednesday night!! We will post it here!
I hope you can all find a little time to create a sweet for your sweet!
Happy Valentines Day! Hugs!
Cute treats, Mimi! That is a really fun idea.
I love my hubby--this is our 20th Valentines together :)

I am loving that no one in my house is sick. I think someone at home has been sick, since Christmas.
Oh and of course, love that it is Valentine's day.

I love Valentine's Day! I loved getting up early to make them a special Valentine breakfast with pink chocolate chip pancakes and pink hot cocoa topped with marshmellow hearts. Happy Valentine's Day!!!!!!

I love my hubby for making me cinnamon rolls this morning. I love the excitement on my boys' faces as I dropped them off for school.

Hmmm...today I think I am loving the colors of Valentine's Day. As a teacher I merely have to glance up as people walk past my room to view this day in all its glory :)

I love that my family will be celebrating each other today. I am spending time at my kiddos school today and then we are coming home to do arts & crafts together. We will have a special meal full of family favorites followed by a family game night and ending with our nightly bible stories. A pretty great day, if you ask me! :) I hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful day too. (I will be treating my self to your workshop and mixed media goodies very soon - I am SO very excited!)

Happy Hearts Day to you too Christie. I am loving that at my work one of the students told me her Dad bought her roses and a big teddy bear. I think that is very sweet:)!!!

Those are darling! Great idea for my daughter's teachers.
Speaking of... I {heart} my daughter, Zoie. She's such a blessing and I am so fortunate to be able to call myself her "mommy". She's amazing--hilarious, compassionate, honest, loving, adorable, sincere... everything a mother could hope for. love her to pieces. <3
