This is part two of the Valentine Cards I made this year. (I need to hurry up before it becomes St. Patrick's day... or Valentine's Day 2014!) You can see Part One here.
Fish, worms, and bears, oh my! |
I originally say the fish Valentine Card below on Etsy and knew I wanted to make them! However, I waited until the night before to go to Target to get my Swedish fish. :oP While standing in the gummy aisle, I saw other gummy shapes and was inspired!

The clear bags are from Daiso ($1.50 for 25)! Swedish fish and all other gummies from Target.
I found some fish bowl shape online, colored them in Photoshop and added some text. These two say, "You're Fin-tastic" and "You're a great catch!"
The brown is supposed to be dirt and this one says, "You've wormed your way into my heart!"
This one says "I love you beary much!"
I printed out the shapes/bowls and cut them out. (Maybe I'll get those templates on here sometime soon!) Put the cut out in the clear bags, filled it with candy, and done! :) I did tape the bottom corners to the back to help hold the cut out bowl/shape in place a little better. (I heard you can buy round bottomed bags from Michaels.)
Here are the final products! I gave 'em out to my co-workers, my brother, and a couple of friends. :)
"You're Fin-tastic" and "You're a great catch" I borrowed from the Internets, but I came up with the worm and gummy bear sayings all on my own. While standing in the candy aisle of Target. :D
Which one is your favorite? :)
I like the bears cause gummy bears are the tastiest. Hehe. But the worms and fish are cute too!
