WHAT YOU NEED:
- Pencil
- Red Felt
- Pen
- Scissors - Paper Scissor and Fabric Scissor
- White Paper
- Double-sided Adhesive Tape
- Ruler
- Heart-shaped Cookie Cutter
- Old Greeting Card
INSTRUCTIONS :
STEP 1:
Make a heart template by tracing a heart-shaped cookie cutter onto an old greeting card. If you do not have a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut a heart shape out of paper and trace onto an old greeting card.
STEP 2:
Use the template to trace the heart on the red felt. After tracing heart, cut the heart out.
STEP 3:
Fold the heart in half and cut two small slits about 1/2" from the edge. The pencil will be inserting into the slits.
STEP 4:
Cut strips ½” wide from white paper. Write something on the strip about 1” from the end; such as, “Happy Valentine”, “You’re All Write”, “Write On Valentine” or “Happy Valentine’s Day”. Don’t forget to put your name on the front or the back.
STEP 5:
Attach a piece of double-sided adhesive tape to the back of the strip and wrap it around the pencil.
STEP 6:
Insert the pencil into the slits in the felt heart.
Easy, peasy! The heart pencil favor is complete.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
