We had so much fun creating our ah-MAZE-ing valentine last year. Along came the EOS lip balm and and our non-candy printable valentine collection has grown! These You are My Sunshine Valentines are meant to be paired with a yellow EOS lip balm. Four print to a page along with all of the cut lines you need. Cut the dotted line in the center of the sun.

Parenting and Big Decisions
