More Valentine's Favors 9.0

It is par for the course for me to need to get something done last minute, or have very little time to make some of the things. Tonight was no exception - I needed favors for a party tommorrow for between 4 and 30 kids...of mixed ages. After some thought, I whipped out the M&M's I keep for just these kind of snafus and set to work making a template. I came up with the idea of making a candy holder Valentine shaped like a tag. I colored in several dozen of Bugaboo Stamps Valentine Basket -Bears, and quickly worked out a simple layout. I think they turned out rather well. Now I just hope there won't be any surprises as far as how many children will be in attendance! If there are any leftovers we will be drop them off at a local nursing home for residents to enjoy too. Sounds win-win to me -so long as there aren't more than 4 dozen kids!

Incidentally...these have also been entered into the following challenges:
