Thanks! The sucker one is priceless and I knew two things immediately when I saw it. 1) I had to do it and 2) NO WAY Parker would cooperate for it. So the smartie one, I just came up with that on my own...why you hadn't seen it before. I'm sure it's not *that* unique an idea but at least he cooperated for it.

I'm doing the sucker one too! Wish I had seen this thread first, I had to offer the world to my Kyle to get him to take the photo. I ended up with one decent one (through his mouth). I will have to post photos once I do the sucker part. The best thing is that I had them printed at Sams, got 10 free and it only ended up being $6 including tax for 55 of them! I am so sending these to family (they didn't get a Christmas card this year).

Hope its OK Lena I'm just going to add on to your thread, no sense in starting a new one with basically the same thing. Like I said Kyle refused to hold his hand out and smile at the same time, so he ended up with the straw I was using as a prop in his mouth and that is how I ended up with the candy going through his mouth. And for the g-parents, I wont put anything there and keep the photo whole.




And I totally know what you are talking about taking a photo of a photo...not good, they really do look better IRL.

Only one of them was my idea LOL...the smarties one...I have no idea whose idea the lollipop one was since it was found on pinterest and I never saw it on pinterest, only here.

I'm glad to see so many people doing it; I think it's really cute and I think they are going to go over like crazy at Naomi's ballet Valentine party tomorrow. Parker doesn't really have a party to take his to, I'm just mailing them to a few relatives and he's taking a few to the babysitter's house next Monday (but she only keeps my kids LOL)

I don't know how we'll all top this next year

That's brilliant, Celeste!!!

Naomi had her Valentine's party last night at ballet and I got a few interesting responses...the moms were looking on the back of them to see where I got them printed at, and then one of them finally asked me. When I told them I created them myself, one or two of them actually acted like they didn't believe me LOL. If I do something like this next year, I'll put them in bags since the sucker made it side heavy and awkward to handle.

So, just curious...how big is the finished product? 4 x 6-ish??

I totally love this idea and am hoping to do DD's this weekend! The bag idea is fabulous. Hadn't thought of doing that.

I did 4x6's. JJ's are bagged with a toy story pencil and Abby's have foam cards glued to the back with her classmates names on them.

Everyone loved mine and laughed (which is fine). I did 4x6 since this is what Sam's Club prints and it really was super cheap! I have to be picky about the candy DS gets because of his peanut allergy so for me I was going to buy candy/cards separately anyway. I sent mine of to the all the grandparents/great-grandparents yesterday. Oh well they will be late, but with the crazy snow..can't be helped.

DS had his Valentine's Day party yesterday. Everyone was amazed. We got a lot of "how did you do that!?!?!?" Some remembered last years and were curious to see what we did again. The staff totally loved them.

I just printed 4x6 (they were only 13cents each at Costco). I had one sheet of wallets printed up as a test and those would work for the dumdum candies quite well too. Those are only 39 cents for 4 prints. We were out ~$7.00 for prints and candy for the class.

Here's ours. We did smaller ones (approx. 3.5x2.5) and used the Dum dum sized pops.

Our little brat (my 10 year old brother) refused to do these, so he is giving out Fun Dip this year. YAY for Fun Dip being delicious, BOO for it not being all cute and personalized like these.

Wonder if these will be too overused by the time my baby is baked and in school??? Lol
