Every February back in high school the junior class sold Crush cans. You could send them to teachers, friends or your crush. 
For $1 you sent a can and for $2 you could send a can and block that you sent it. After much anticipation, all the Crush cans were placed in mailboxes on Valentine's day and as a recipient you could then pay to find out who sent all yours cans (unless of course your crush blocked it). 
This was SO much fun (as well a small confidence boost) and incredibly popular that I have since always wanted to hand out Crush cans to my friends. Well, this year I finally got around to making two little printables to tie on the cans and I was so pleased with how everything turned out that I wanted to share with with you all.
"I've got a CRUSH on you!" was the first printable I made. I went with the pink and orange theme since the cans are orange and Valentine's day is all about the pink in my book. I bought a 12 pack for Crush for $2.50 at my local Target so this is a very affordable Valentine option for classmates or friends.
I think the second printable would be fun to secretly leave in neighbors mailboxes or at coworkers desks.
"You've been CRUSHed" might just be the new doorbell ditch in my hood :)

You should be able to click the image and then save it from the slide show. Here is a set of tags all ready to go and all sized to work with punches as well:

Oh my goodness! This is the cutest!!! I wish I could do this for my new friends here in Edinburgh (I'm studying abroad...), but I'm pretty sure they don't sell Crush here!
OMG...I LOVE this idea! I think I might just have to do it for my co-workers!
This is adorable! You always make the cutest printables.
such a fun idea!
I think this is just too fun. At my high school, you could buy single long-stemmed roses to have delivered to people -- but the Crush idea is cuter and way less cheesy. :)
I totally forgot about this tradition!! So much cuter with the printables! would have been fun to do in taft colors!
Just darling, Hopsy. Wish I could get my son to give these out, but being a 9th grader .. no chance! ;)
Oh goodness, these are the cutest! Love this idea so much!
Super cute!!!!
Super cute!
Yes! cute! thanks for the freebies!
This is the cutest idea! Definitely going to pass them out.
These are adorable and such an adorable idea! Thank you for sharing the printable with us! I can't wait to recreate this.
We are doing this right now in my KKG chapter! The proceeds are going to charity!!
This is such a cute idea!!! Thanks for including the printables too!
This is so cute! Thanks for sharing...I think I may have to do this for my co-workers!
Aaah I am so obsessed with this. I wish I actually like my co-workers, so I'd have a good reason to make these ;)
How sweet, Hopsy!! If we lived closer I'd deliver one to YOU!!
what a cute idea!
AdorAble!
So cute! We are going to try this! Thanks for sharing!
That is an unbelievably creative idea! I love it

How sweet is this idea?
we used to do this too, and randomly i was thinking about it recently! way to bring back the crush, hopsy!
this is the cutest thing I've ever seen! you inspired me to order a 12 pack of Crush (which is a bit more expensive in the UK than @ Target - but well worth it!) for my husband and the kids for a little Valentine's treat! Many thanks for the idea and the darling printable, too! xo
Oh Hopsy, this is just tooooo cute and creative! Adore it. xoxo
I LOVE this idea!!
I always love your printables! At our school they sold carnations, which is much less fun than Crush!
So cute!!! I starred this post as a suggestion for a Valentine's fundraiser for next year at school:)
I totally gave a Sig Ep a six pack of grape Crush freshman year during serenades at the Kappa House. He had no idea I existed previously to that night, but we dated for like, 3 months afterward.
Totally brought back the memory!
I am planning on mentioning this post in my own blog post tomorrow, with a link back to your original post. I hope that's ok, if not let me know.
This is so cute, my high school did roses and this would have been so much for fun!
Thank you for the printables! I made Strawberry crust float kits for our friends.
