This is my 500th post here at TwoCansOnAString.com — I should make it something special.
With Valentine’s Day right on our heels, I think maybe something to print out would be in order.
Something simple for a children’s school or church party.
Or something for you to give your special valentine’s.
These Disney cup cake toppers and cup cake doilies are great . . . you can pack the cup cakes in a lunch or have them for dessert. They do look lovely.
For the toppers, just glue on a toothpick . . . and for the cup cake doilies, you’ll wrap them around the cup cake papers to make them look festive.
Just click the image to the left or to the right to download the PDF and print out.
I do like these. I’m also wondering about other things that may be of interest to you . . .
The links above will take you to the PDFs to download and print out on card stock. I think that would be enough to keep you busy this day before Valentine’s Day . . . I’m always thinking something else might be fun to make for you to give or decorate . . . or for your children to make and give to friends . . .
Something simple, but fun . . .
How about some Disney Lollipop Labels — They’re a Valentine that has a lollipop attached. They are cute and fun for your children to hand out to friends. There are five of them — Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Goofy. I think they would be fun just to have around the house . . . or give at work . . . You could have them in a cup and people can pick the one that appeals to them.
There are a lot of links on this page for you to click . . . I do hope in this 500th post, I have something you like . . . if not, it wasn’t for lack of trying on my part. Thank you for stopping by!
These are so easy, the kids can do them! You just need to click the picture, print out the PDF of four different Minion Valentine Day cards on card stock, tape a sucker on them, fill out the To and From lines and you’re in business. Put them all in a bag for the kids to take to school and no one will know you waited until the last minute to complete these Valentines for a school or church party.
I think these work for all ages. Not a lot of mushy sentiments attached to them.
There are many suckers you can find in your local market — some may even be on sale . . . but even not, you can have your children give a Valentine’s Day card with something special attached to it.
With a bit of creativity on your part, you can change the sentiment and even remove the To and From lines and use the images as birthday party favors or for other occasions. This is one of those designs that work for many celebrations.
With Valentine’s Day Coming Towards Us, Are You Ready?
Family.Disney.com is always on board when it comes to making unique Valentine’s your children can hand out to their friends and classmates.
Adding a lollipop would be a great bonus in Valentine card giving.
Just click the image and you’ll be taken to the page where you can print them out.
I’m sure there is something else you may like for Valentine’s Day. It’s nice to dress cupcakes up at home or for a school party. I know many bakeries are way ahead of you, but it’s worth a try if you make these for your family. I don’t know anyone who can resist Disney characters.
These would be good to pack into your child’s lunch box. Or have for a snack when they get home from school. The most important Valentine’s Day card they’ll receive is something from Mom and Dad or Grandma and Grandpa . . .
It may not be much for this post, but I’m sure you’ve already selected the pack of cards your kids want to hand out to their friends and classmates.
I know just about every where I go I’m running into packages of Valentine’s Day cards. There is a greater variety of cards than when I was a kid. I’m not complaining . . . times were simple then. Now, with all the movies and candies and free printables available on-line, you are bombarded with all kinds of Valentine’s Day cards and accessories.
Family.Disney.com has you covered with their free printable Valentine’s Day Cards.
I don’t know how you or your children’s school handles Valentine’s Day, but I know this was a fun day with a Valentine’s Day Party when I was a going to school.
It was fun to pass out the cards and also to receive them.
I know of some people who like to make their own or they buy packets from their local grocery store. Isn’t it amazing how the grocery store has all these extras for the holidays?
It’s a good idea to begin a bit early . . . the last minute hurrying around doesn’t seem to work out as well as having everything together ahead of time. This is to be fun . . . not torture.
The Peter Pan pop-up card is great fun to make and give. You may also like the Tinker Bell’s pop-up Valentine’s Day Card. I didn’t include the picture, but just click the link and you’ll be taken to the PDF file for printing.
I do like pop-up cards. They’re a bit more work, but they seem to say that you cared enough to do something extra special.
Jake and The Neverland Pirates are small and quite popular as are the Frozen Inspired Valentine Cards.
Just click the image to be taken to the PDF file for immediate download and print them out.
It’s difficult for me to know exactly what your children want to give as Valentine’s Day cards, so be sure to check out the selection at Family,Disney.com
There are lots of other things you may like to print out as well.
You’ll find some delicious cookies and cupcakes you can make for your own Valentine’s Day Party . . . or for a special treat for your children.
There are also lunch book cards you can put in your children’s lunch box or backpack to give them a delightful surprise when they find it. It’s always nice to know someone cares.
You’ll also find some boxes you can print out and make . . . then fill with candies or cookies . . . that will be extra special for family and friends.
I know I did rush right into Easter . . . but I’m slowing down a bit and get with the calendar.
And I’ll do you one better . . . I’ll include St. Patrick’s Day . . . All Free Printables.
Yes, I have been focused on crafts lately. And it may continue for awhile . . .
I’m getting serious about paper crafts . . . getting into the mechanics of the process . . . and seeing what I can make on my own . . .
I’ve shared with you several 3-D free printables from various websites. I do appreciate them as you may also. But there does come a time when it is necessary to venture out and create some unique designs for yourself.
It would also be a challenge for me to be able to complete a project from concept to completion.
With the New Year, it is always nice to have a goal to work towards throughout the year. And, if it takes me longer, it will merely be a continuation into the next New Year.
I do enjoy the flexibility of goals. They remain a goal until completed . . . and since they are your goals, they can be altered from time to time to reflect the new direction you may be moving.
As Promised, Here’s St. Patrick’s Day Mickey
Yes, he is a candy box.
It’s fun to give these throughout the year. I love it when children save them and set them up in their bedroom on a bookcase shelf. It does make a colorful display.
And since Mickey Mouse is into the St. Patrick’s Day Spirit . . . Minnie Mouse decided to join in the fun. Soon you will have two more candy boxes to make and share with those loved ones who are Mickey and Minnie Mouse Fans.
This should keep you busy and ahead of schedule.
It’s delightful to be ahead of the holiday than rushing and trying to catch up.
I know the stores get things out for Valentine’s Day right after Christmas. They are reminders for us to get them now before it is too late.
I don’t know if there are Valentine’s Day parties at your child’s school. If so, you’ll need to either make Valentine’s Day cards for handing out to classmates or purchase them . . . if you make them, you can get creative.
It’s always fun to give cards with treats in them. Or that have a fun theme that features a favorite Disney character. There are plenty for both boys and girls.

This wraps up another post . . . come on back to see what I’ve added. I do try to add something new every other day, but sometimes time does get away from me.
I do like these. I’m also wondering about other things that may be of interest to you . . .
