In case you are looking for some Valentine Gift Ideas, I’ve got two to offer you. Recently, when my stampers saw these adorable Valentine’s table favors waiting for them on my dining table before card class started, their excitement was contagious!
This sweet small gift bag created with the Hearts of Elegance Bundle from Stampin’ Up!, is the perfect blend of charm and deliciousness. Filled with an overflowing bag of homemade Valentine Chex mix (see the recipe below), it instantly became a crowd favorite during crafting time.
The other heart foil tins and locking plastic lid were some I had on hand from 2020. If you still have some in your stash, dig them out and use them. I used a retired stamp set called Little Ladybug. If you don’t have that one, something similar will work.
It’s amazing how a thoughtful, handcrafted touch can make such a big impact on those you surprise!

Stampin’ Up! currently has a Gift Bag Combo Pack of 8 small bags and 8 larger bags (see idea here) that are perfect for small gift gifting or filling with a snack mix. You’ll also need the Hearts of Elegance Bundle and Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper.

I just love the embossed gold foil heart in the Hearts of Elegance die set. It is so beautiful and adds just the right amount of regal-ness to this project.
Valentine Gift Ideas – Little Ladybug Bundle & Heart Foil Tins
Turns out this stamp set and heart foil tins came out in the spring of 2020. But if you still have some in your stash you can stamp a bunch of Little Ladybugs in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. The Little Ladybug Bundle has dies to cut out this cute ladybug. They were colored with Light Gray Granite and Light Real Red Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers.
I attached the ladybugs to the red heart doily, then to the plastic lid with 3 glue dots. On the reverse side of the lid I stamped “You’re so Sweet” on Basic White cardstock, with Memento Black Ink. I used a 1″ circle punch and punched out those sayings. A couple glue dots attached them to the inside of the lid for a little surprise effect.
However, if you don’t have these maybe you have something else that will work for you.
