Cell Phone Valentines.

Alright friends, figuring out a valentine design for a 10 year old boy is tough.  Lucky for me I came across this image a couple of weeks ago.  I ran it passed Easton + he was thrilled with the idea.  What is it with boys and technology?  Gets it from his father, I guess.


The candy dots were found at Wal-Mart in the party aisle.  The silver paper was found at a scrapbook store.


I printed + pre-cut everything.  Easton assembled the pieces yesterday after school.  


What do you think?  Are these cool enough for 10 year olds?

Yes! Lindsay and I were just talking about hard it is to find cool Valentines for our older children. You know, that don't have obnoxious characters on them. These definitely will pass for the 10 year old set! Love it!

P.S.
There's still carrot cake left. Come have a piece. Seriously.

My first grader came home today with one of these from their class party, and it was by far her favorite valentine. She said she wants to do them next year...but I like your fancy silver paper better. I think this is perfect for any age in elementary school.

had i gotten one of these when I was a kid I'd probably still have it now... granted the candy would be incredibly icky & probably rock hard but they are way too cool not to keep!
