Prepare your candies! They could really be anything...I found a large bucket of Valentine candy corns for $2.50, and little lollypop baggies that were $2.50 for 50. They were the only things I had to buy, as I was just using up odds and ends of ribbon and paper that I already had! - Super cheap for all the 30-something Valentines I had to make!
|
I found that 15 candies fit nicely in the baggies without making them too puffy out the back when completely assembled |
6.5 x 3 1/8. Score at 3/8 and 2 7/8 - put some sticky strip on the outer bottom little tab, and also in the middle center (inside, to hold the bag of candy in place. Cut or punch out a heart shape |
Stick the candy bag to the middle inside, fold over and attach the little front flap to the underside of the front. and you're done!!
Or almost done. Punch out a smaller heart (mine has {sweet} stamped on it, and is embellished with a little pink gem). Adhere to candy bag with a mini glue dot (or two). Tie a ribbon to the side, and you're done!

I was using up odds and end of paper and ribbon, so none of mine are identical...but all super cute!! |
See a side view? With the dimensions scored as they are, it gives a little more room in the back to expand with the candies in there. Love it!!
