Valentine Treats



I quickly put these treat bags together yesterday for my Bible study group this morning. I did not have time to do cute boxes with DSP like I had planned. I was also hoping to get some Ghirardelli chocolate squares but I had to settle for the Lindor Truffles. They were at least on sale! I put two in cello bags and tied with retired Real Red ribbon then punched out the Petal Pink hearts with a retired heart punch. I stamped the sentiment from Bee My Valentine set in Real Red ink. I hole punched the side and tied with some Sweet Sorbet twine.
Hope your day is sweet and thanks for stopping by!
