I first saw the idea for these super cute Valentines cards on Pinterest, and I fell in love with them. Every year, our homeschool group has an annual Valentines party - and I thought these would be so neat to hand out this year.
Since we have a party for all the homeschool kids together, and not just individual grades - I thought it would be cute (and cheaper) to get both my daughters together with their fists outreached and right beside each other for a joint card.
Whether you have one kid in the photo or two - the process is the same. Have your child hold out their fist in an upward position. Stand on a stool or chair and take a picture. Once developed, cut a slit in the picture at the top of their fist and another at the bottom. Stick a sucker right in the opening, and ta-da - you're done! The slit with the sucker gives the hands a 3D effect. Very cool!
I ordered my cards through SeeHere.com. I added 24 of them to my cart, and then used the code 25FREE. I paid about $3.00 for shipping. I am not sure how long that code is good for though. You can do cards, or just regular photographs.
Check out all the great blog parties that I link up with!
