Valentine Match Books

Since Valentine's Day is fast approaching I thought I would share a cute little project I made last year using scraps of cardstock and patterned paper. These are little match book favors that hold a miniature candy bar or as I have here a small bag of Valentine's M&M's. The bag that I used to hold the M&M's is a jewerly bag that I purchased in a pack of 50 I think at my local Michael's.

To give the hearts that crinkled look I rolled them through my Fiskars corrugator.

Deets: Cardstock: Bazzill. Pattern Papers: Dream Street. Heart Punch: Marvy. Buttons: stash
