Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

Red Felt
Scissors
Glue
Red, white, and/or pink yarn/ribbon
Craft Decorations
Metallic Paint Craft Pen
Strong Sewing Needle

Step1

Cut out two large, matching hearts from the felt.

Step2

Glue top parts of hearts together, just at the very top. Let dry.

Step3

Use yarn/ribbon and a thick needle to thread thru the heart, right below the gluing. Tie front and back ends or yarn/ribbon at top in a pretty bow. Do one thread of yarn/ribbon on each side of the heart.

Step4

Use glue, sparkling craft decorations, or whatever, to decorate the outside of the heart-shaped card. Use craft pens to write a message on the inside of the card.

Tips & Warnings

For a neat twist, try gluing most of the front and back heart together, then filling it with craft stuffing. Glue the heart closed and use a craft pen to write a message on the fluffy card.
Be careful not to let the child glue the two heart pieces completely together if their making a traditional card. Their creation won't open if they do.
