Valentine Sweets for My Sweets

Hi there!  Has the sugar rush subsided yet?  My kids had Valentine's Day parties at school....and that means they came home on a sugar high!  And I added to their rush last night with these...bad Mommy!  Each treat bag is a bit different...I gave my children (and my husband!) some of their favorite goodies...gummy bears, chocolate covered raisins, a milk chocolate Dove bar, Werther's hard candies.  Each has a different tag as well.  Aren't they cute?

I made sure the bags were hidden before the kids left for school today....Mom has little self-control!  :-)  My daughter's bag isn't shown here, but I attached to it the card I made for her HERE.   

Recipe
Hearts & shadow - Cricut George & Basic Shapes
Scalloped circle & circle - Cricut Mini Monograms
'be mine' - Cricut Simply Charmed
'Love You' - Cricut Baby Steps
Patterned paper - DCWV Holiday stack
Cardstock - Recollections
Bunny, doggy stamps - Michael's dollar bin
Red adhesive "backless" brads, yarn - from my stash
Stampin' Up ink
Colorbox chalk ink
Black Creative Memories marker, white Gelly Roll pen for doodling/stitching
Recollections dimensionals
Glue dots

I'm entering my treat bags into 3 challenges:
Celebrate the Occasion Challenge #50 - Create a Valentine's Day project which includes a heart.  Each of my treat bags has at least one.
Die Cuttin Divas Challenge #52 - Create a project using at least 2 colors from red, pink, black and white.
Whimsical Wednesday's "Colors of Love" challenge - Create a project using red, white and one more color.  I chose black for my third color.

Have a great day!
