Share the Love #5: I’m Stuck on You

Today’s cheesy Valentines involves cacti and thumbprints, 2 of my favorite things! Last year Kelly whipped up 4 healthy fruit themed Valentines, perfect for the classroom! New here? Every Tuesday and Thursday until heart day we pick a clever saying off of this list of 150+ valentine ideas paired with small treats and whip up a little something crafty to bring y’all tons of valentines ideas!

Hey friends! It’s me again, Kelly from Live Laugh Rowe. I usually stop by for the Share the Love series Jamie hosts each year. I’m always happy to spread a little extra love for the upcoming holiday. It is one of my favorites! Today I’m sharing a fun kid-friendly DIY valentine that includes thumbprints. Seriously, how cute are these Thumbprint Cactus Valentines?

I don’t have children, but I know if I did, I would be all-over the fun thumbprint art you can do. I think it’s ADORABLE! Sure, it can be a little messy, but it’s just too fun to pass up.

Supplies for Thumbprint Cactus Valentines:

• Printable Template
• Scissors or Cutting Board
• Green Ink Pad
• Black Fine Point Marker
• Markers or Color Pencils
• Baby Wipes, for quick clean up

How to download the free cactus printable

To download the free printable cactus Valentines, just enter your name and email address below and the free file will be delivered to your inbox! The fingerprint template Valentines come 4 to a page and say, “Free Hugs!”

Print off the printable valentine template and cut out. Next you’ll want to have your child use his thumbprint to start the cactus — then maybe use his pinky finger print to do smaller ones off of the large one.

Use the black fine point marker to create some of the thorns and maybe an orange or pink marker to create a colorful cacti floral.

You might want to color in the pot as well — and the rest is already done! Cute puns and valentine wishes are already included on the printable. Woo-Hoo!

We all know that sometimes handmade valentines are a little harder to squeeze in, so I have these adorable Cactus Valentines for you on my blog. A little less work, but just as cute. Decisions, decisions!

Wishing you a Happy Valentine’s Day — and a BIG thanks to Jamie for having me! Stay sharp!
