Be my {valentine}

WARNING: If you are my visiting teachee, you have been warned this might be a peek at your gift for February. :)

I had some great ideas when I saw these mini paint cans at Target. I also found 2x2 canvas on clearance at Micheals. I also found these awesome puffy stickers there as well. Heidi Swapp made these fabulous pom poms. So all combined, here's what I came up with. I made magnets out of the pom poms and the mini canvases.

Snickerdoodles via Occasionally Crafty

I met Valeriae via the Craftaholics Anonymous Gift Exchange. She recently put a Snickerdoodle recipe that I thought I would try. Mmmm...they turned out tasty. Here;s the link to the recipe:
Best Snickerdoodles Ever

I made a couple of changes. I used parchment paper instead of greasing the cookie sheet. I also used the minimum amount of flour called for in the recipe. Valerie suggested baking the cookies at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. I was surprised the cookies turned out so amazing! I never have that much luck! MMM...they were tasty. Here's a picture:
Thanks, Valerie! :)
