    I've made this for my hubby this year. I think it looks better in reality than the picture though!

    DD and I made a mixture of these to give out to all her cousins and pre-school teachers. My handwriting is not great but the sliver pens makes up for it LOL! Thanks for ideas, hope you all don't mind me stealing them! :)

    Gosh, not sure why the pic is so big!!

    Ami - love your sweet bags. Where did you get the foil wrapped bee's?
    Also, looking for some help. I can't get anywhere for cello bags for tomorrow. Is there any way I can make them from a roll of cello? Or something simple out of card?
    TIA

    These love bugs are now on sale in Tesco for £1 a net ..... good for Valentines Day, but the use by date on the ones I got is Dec 11 - so I am stocking up for Easter and Mothers Day - Tesco only have these in the run up to Valentines day - then they disappear - so if you want to do the same ...... get them while you see them.
    Helen they have these in aldi aswell i popped in there yesterday,think they were 69p a pack so i got two packs but will grab some more once im home,im at mum and dads in wales at the mo.also they have the legs on them made from card
