Here are some valentines candy pockets that I made in case you can use them for your children's classroom parties. I left them blank so that you can personalize them. If you have MS Word...here is a thread that will teach you how to insert a textbox or word art to personalize yours:

Also, check out Bababear (Mel's) thread as she always has the best bag toppers and I'm sure there are bound to be some Valentine ones:

To make these you can print them lots of different sizes. If you make the print size approximately 5.75 x 5.03 inches you can get two good size pillow pockets on a single page. Then trim out and fold on the lines. Use double sided tape to secure. This should be slightly rounded like a pillow. Before you seal up both ends...put some candy inside of the box. Fun size candy in the bag (like M&Ms work well). If the end product (once it is folded) is 2 inches wide by 3 inches long, you can get three chocolate nuggets, six Hershey kisses, two peppermint patties or a combination of them in each pillow box. That is the size for the picture example below. Hope that makes sense! Here is a picture of some finished ones. You can add a ribbon and/or tag to really make it special!
DELETED SINCE VALENTINES IS OVER, BUT THEY ARE STILL IN MY 4SHARED FILE IN THE CANDY WRAPPER FILE AND THEN THE PILLOW BOX FILE.

These little things are adorable!! I plan on using a few of them for my kids. I can't wait to see what other cute stuff you come up with.
