{Free Printable} Valentine Coupon Book

***Spoiler Alert***
If you happen to be my husband-Jeff- Quit reading this post!! ;)

Ok... So for Valentines this year, I decided to put together stuff to do the 14 days of Valentines for my husband. I have never done it before so it will be fun to watch him get his little surprises each day! I am still putting together a post with free printables for anyone who wants to join me in doing the 14 days of Valentines... The post should be up this weekend sometime so stay tuned...

In the meantime, I wanted to share one of the gifts that I am giving him on one of the 14 days. I decided to share it in a separate post because you could totally use this gift without having to do the full 14 days... It is a little coupon book that I put together full of coupons for date nights, movie night, massages, and even a coupon for me to watch a sports game {at home} with him... no complaints;) 

It's just tiny... approx=1x2 inches... so it would be fun to hide it in a pocket or on the dash of your special someone's car for them to find. 

I made two versions... One with the printed coupons that I used for my hubby, and I also threw in a blank version so you could write your own coupons... I ended up using both and wrote things on the blank ones that I came up with while putting the book together... I even threw in a few dramatic red lipstick smooches on a couple of the coupons for added measure;)

To put it together, print your page/pages and cut out each of the coupons individually (I cut just inside of the rectangles so that the coupons were slightly smaller than the cover)- except with the top rectangle on the page- that one is the cover of the book... Cut around the rectangle that is surrounding the front and back cover and fold in half to create the cover of book. Then punch two holes on the left edge of the cover/backside... this will be for your ribbon to go through to hold the pages together... Then you will need to punch each of the coupons so they each line up within the cover of the book. After they are all lined up inside, thread some string or ribbon through and tie a bow. That is it! Super simple!!!

And if you wanted it to look like you spend a little more time than just cutting out the pages, you could totally glue each coupon and the cover page on some fun card stock to create more of a personalized look...

To print the pages, just click on the link below each image that says "download here". All I ask is that you become a follower of my blog by email or gfc before printing! Thanks!!
