How to Make A Heart Valentine's Day Card Holder

Kids love Valentines Day. They like making valentines and valentine crafts.
I love Hearts so making this Heart Valentine's Day Card Holder was a lot of fun for me. Be a kid and make one for yourself or for your child to take to school.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Brown Grocery Bag
• Yarn/ribbon
• Glue
• Paper punch
• Glitter
• Heart shapes

1. 

   Get a sheet of paper and draw your heart pattern onto it. Then cut it out.

2. 

   Lay that heart pattern onto the brown paper bag and trace it with a marker.

3. 

   Cut out your paper bag heart.

4. 

   Take your hole punch and punch holes into your valentine heart.

5. 

   Loop your yarn or ribbon in the holes you punched. When you've threaded it all the way around put a spot of glue on both sides to hold the ends of your yarn in. I held it together to dry with paper clips.

6. 

   I used print artist and made me hearts of different sizes. I then cut them out and glued them on the Valentine's Day Card holder.

7. 

   Now the messy part. Spread newspaper down to catch the overflow of glitter. Trace the hearts with glue and sprinkle the glitter on. Dump it off and see what needs touched up and reglue and glitter.

8. 

   Making a Heart Valentine's Day Card Holder is fun. Be creative and make one for yourself.
