Star Wars Themed Valentine Idea

I've told you that I recently discovered Dollar Tree...so here is another Valentine idea for you!  I found these cool, puffy glow sticks and I thought they would make nice lightsabers.



I had seen a Valentine idea where you take a picture of your child with their hand outstretched.  Then you cut a little hole in their hand and insert a sucker (and it looks like they are giving it to you). 

Well, my kids weren't around (and I thought they were too old for that), so I decided to try using the dog.  I put his paw on my knee and took his picture:


Through the magic of Photoshop, we removed the background and added the Star Wars Cape.

I printed the image onto cardstock.  Then I cut an "X" near his paw and inserted the glow stick as his light saber.


The kids loved this one, too!


Here are the lightsabers "in action"!


(Note:  It is OK to use this image for personal use...simply hover over the picture, right click, copy, open your word processing program, paste and print!)

My kids have ideas of their own...the oldest taped his light saber to a stuffed animal that we are calling "Yoda".  (It cracked us up!)


This reminds me that I think...


"YODA" best for reading my blog!
