We were flipping through our Family Fun magazine a couple of weeks ago and Will stopped at a page and said, "I want to make those!"
I'm not a naturally crafty person but I figured I could handle these little guys. We decided to make some for friends and family for Valentine's Day. So here you have what we call the "Caped Bible Crusader" Valentines! :)
Items Needed:
Tootsie Roll suckers, preferably in Valentine's pink
Cardstock in red, pink and/or white
Sharpie or art marker
White computer paper
Hole punch
Scotch tape or glue stick
Family Fun template for cape and mask
Instructions:
Download the Family Fun template. Cut out and trace the cape template the desired number of times onto cardstock and cut out the cardstock. Then trace and cut the mask template (I used white computer paper because it wound around the Tootsie Pop easier than cardstock).
Write your desired message on each cut piece of cardstock. Punch a hole in the top of each cape and slide onto Tootsie Pop stick. It took a little work to do this and some help from my husband but we made it work!
Draw eyeholes on the mask with black marker. Wrap and tape around the Tootsie Pop. Our bag had 16 suckers and in my opinion that was enough! The kids helped put on the capes and masks and they loved the end result so it was worth it!
