Judith Doubell from (Judith Doubell Photography) sent us this gorgeous little DIY with printable lunchbox tags. "I love puns and I love lunch. So this year I decided I will put in some extra effort to pack the punniest lunch box full of quirky and yummy things, perfect to surprise your valentine" says Judith.
This is what you'll need
- Two ham and cheese sandwiches
- "Zoo" cookies
- Mixed nuts or peanuts and raisons
- Fresh mixed berries in a tub
- Packet of chewing gum or mints
- Heart shaped cookie cutter
- Two sheets of brown cardboard
- Glue (Prit and Clear Adhesive)
- Scissors
- Stapler
- Prown paper bag or box
- Labels printed(Download here)
Now follow these easy steps:
STEP ONE
Make the ham and cheese sandwiches. Take the heart shape cookie cutter and press through the sandwich making sure that you press hard enough to cut off all the edges.
STEP TWO
Cut out all the tags and paste it on the brown cardboard. Once it is stuck, make sure you leave about a 1cm border all the way around when you cut out these tags.
STEP THREE
Remove all the current labels from the soda bottle and berry tub. Using the Clear Adhesive or similar strong glue you can now attach the new labels to the products. Use the stapler to add the tag to the packet of nuts.
STEP FOUR
There is one label that you can use for the front of a cute valentine’s card, I pasted it on double the size card board and folded it in half to write a special message inside.
STEP FIVE
Once you’ve added all the new and punny labels you can pack this lunch into individual sandwich bags and then into the box or brown paper bag. Today it is yet another scorching hot day, so I packed the lunch into a small cooler bag and sent my hubby off to work.
