Fun kid friendly project

It's Friday, I am burnt out from school and I wanted to do something fun and brainless with Brendan. So, we decided to start our Valentine's cards.

1. I started out by printing a heart on a white piece of paper. I used the heart shape in powerpoint. Brendan helped me rip up pieces of pink and red construction paper.



2. I pulled out my handy glue stick and Brendan and I took turns sticking the pieces on the heart. It did not matter if we went over the sides.

3. I then cut out the hearts and viola! Cute hearts ready to stick on to any card. I won't show you the end product as I want these to be a surprise for my friends and family :) I am planning on using some Valentine's Day stamps and some black paper for the cards...so cute! Or, you can just send these as is and write a lovely note on the back.



The rainy weather was perfect for this craft. Brendan had fun putting these together.

Happy Crafting!

How cute! That's a really great idea. I'll have to remember that. I folded some red paper into cards and cut hearts out of pink, white, and purple paper, and have let Abby glue the hearts on and then stamp with a heart stamp. The stamping part is her favorite part. We started yesterday and she has asked to stamp every 5 minutes or so since then. :)
