Hi friends today I am sharing the perfect “TWEEN” “DIY Extra Gum Valentines” I pulled out my Cricut Maker machine, logged into my Cricut Design Space and in no time wrote out a cute saying with a cute font. Then my Cricut maker and nice sharp cutting blade cut out my saying “flawlessly” and all I had to do, was then do some trimming, gluing, taping, and I was done.

Its so much fun to get to not only create something unique and different from what all the chain stores carry, but to get to play in Cricut Design Space. There are endless options to pick from in Cricut Design Space, but to also design your own thing and let your kids take something different to their friends… its pretty darn fun, and Hey’ most times you have all the supplies at home already so you don’t have to even leave the house and deal with the crowds. That is my kind of creating is staying home and using tools and stuff I already have. 

From Cricut I used the following:

– Cardstock 12×24 Red Tones paper

– Cricut Maker machine

– Cricut cutting blade

– Cricut adhesive mat

– Cricut 0.4 pens

Then you will need a glue stick, scissors, tape and your extra gum to complete these simple DIY Valentines.

I hope you all enjoyed this fun valentine project. I don’t know a tween/teen that doesn’t love gum and/or being “EXTRA” wink. jen
