Hand into Heart – Valentine’s Day Craft

I love this sweet Valentine’s Day craft!
So simple.
And it doubles as a V-Day decoration and childhood keepsake.
Kinda like the Hand print Turkeys!

~Paint one sweet little hand like this:

~Stamp. (I did Cora in pink and Eli in red)
~Repeat on the other side, making a heart shape on the paper.
Do a few practice runs, especially if you are doing it on a canvas and only get one shot.
(I had to press their pinkys down on the paper because it didn’t get enough paint on the paper without an extra push.)
~Frame (couple of bucks at IKEA)
~DONE!

Need something Valentine’s Day-ish to decorate your pad.
Check out these votives.

    An interesting discussion is value comment. I believe that you should write more on this topic, it might not be a taboo topic but generally individuals are not sufficient to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers

    Wow so cute! We just did fingerprint hearts with my daughter's Kindergarten class that are pretty similar. And thanks for popping by my blog – looking forward to seeing YOU at blog sugar. Maybe you'll bring some "lids" with you?
