Made By: Amanda Tibbitts
Time: 45 Minutes
Level: Quick and Easy
Size: About a 1” x 2” flag
Supplies:
- Mini Dots™
- Tootsie Roll pops
- Lawn Fawn “How You Bean?” Conversation Heart Add-On
- Distress ink - Picked Raspberry
- Coordinating twine
- Pink cardstock
- Scratch paper
- Baby wipes or a stamp cleaner
- EK success banner punch
- Craft mat
- Acrylic block
- Paper trimmer
- Scissors
- Blending tool for ink
Directions:
With your paper trimmer, cut a few sheets of pink cardstock in half to make punching easier. Figure out how many Valentine’s you’ll need and punch out that many banners.
Choose which sentiment you want to use from your Lawn Fawn stamps that will go with the solid heart. Using the Distress Ink, stamp your sentiment and the solid heart on the punched banners.
Next, run some Distress Ink along the edges with the blending tool.
With the coordinating twine, tie a tiny bow. Make one for each stamped banner, and attach with Mini Dots. At this point, your child can write their name on the bottom left side of the tag.
Put one Mini Dot on the back top left corner of the tag.
Place the banner onto the stick of the Tootsie Pop.
Repeat these steps for the rest of the pops and before you know it, your class Valentines will be done!
These are so fun to make, and thanks to the cute stamp set from Lawn Fawn, the possibilities are endless!

I began crafting in 1996 and simply fell in love with making my own cards. Long live snail mail! Crafting isn’t just a hobby for me, but a way of life… Teacher gifts, posters, scrapbooks, wood crafts? Yes, please! I have been married to my cute husband for 16 years and he definitely inspires me to try new things and enjoy the little things. As a stay home Mom, my time is spent raising my two girls, and raising the bar for my gift giving!
