Valentines Cereal
This is what we have put together for my daughter’s class for Valentine’s Day. I used Picnik to create the image. I will detail how to do it. Yes, Picnik is closing but this is quick and easy and you have plenty of time to do it before they close (4/19). I simply purchased a case of small boxes of cereal from BJs Wholesale Club; wrapped and glued a solid color scrapbook paper band around the cereal; and glued the image on top. The image says – You Are CEREALsly Awesome.
To make the image – first open Paint. Save that blank canvas without doing anything so you have a pure blank image.
Then open Picnik and under BASIC EDITS crop the image into a perfect square.
Under FRAMES choose rounded edges and round into a perfect circle.
Under EFFECTS choose duo-tone and select a color to fill in your frame.
Under STICKERS choose geometric shapes and place a different circle within your rounded frame.
Under STICKERS choose basic shapes and place a heart in the center.
Under TEXT choose your text and place it within the frame. I created two textboxes. One with the “You Are CEREALsly Awesome” and one with “From Sephora”. When creating text make sure you choose a font that you are happy with.
Save the image as a .jpg file.
Now if you want to create an image in a perfect size so you can use a hole punch to punch them out do the following:
Open the image in Paint
Copy/Paste into Word
Size the image – I sized mine to 2 inches x 2 inches
I also printed sheets with 12 per sheet – simply keep copy/pasting your WORD image throughout the page and determine spacing. Then it is done.
If you wish to make it available to others – print it to a .pdf file by printing to cutepdf.
There you have it – enjoy your Valentine’s Day.
