Classroom Valentine Cards

I found some really cute ideas for Valentine’s Day cards for E classmates this Valentine’s Day. I wanted to do something special so I started looking around.

Fluttering Hearts Valentine

Cardstock Handmade Valentine

These are great, but I was already running out of time and I didn’t want to have a whole bunch of cut out pieces around the house. So I started thinking and since his class loves paper airplanes and E begs me to make him one just about every day, I decided to make my own paper airplane cards.

We traveled to the store and I let E pick out the paper. No boring white paper for us. We went with the brightest most florescent colors that we could find. And surprisingly, it worked!

So I ended up printing out a silly saying for the airplanes, “Up, Up, and Away.  Happy Valentine’s Day” before folding. I recommend folding a couple first to see where the wording ends up so you can get this lined up correctly. I folded all of the airplanes using this pattern from Martha Stewart with E.

I think they turned out great.
