How to make our TP Roll Heart Cards
Place your paint onto a decent sized flat surface. As you can see, we used a plate to make sure we had plenty of space to dip rather than bumping the sides of the kid’s paint trays. To make the two tone hearts we simply put two colours of paints just touching on our plate.
Take your toilet roll tube and shape it into a heart by pushing one side inwards to make the inwards point and the two curves of heart and then pushing the opposite side into a outwards point to make the bottom point of the heart.
Dip one end of your tp roll heart into the coloured paint. we tried to make our hearts half and half by putting the points right on the line where the two colours met.
Print your hearts all over your piece of paper. We used A4 sized paper so that we had enough to make two cards from each sheet. once youre happy with your prints, pop them aside to dry.
Now take your coloured card and fold it in half to make your card.
Once your paper that you printed with hearts is dry you want to cut it down to fit onto your card, you could cut it into a rectangle, a heart or any other shape that takes your fancy!
Optionally add a special message and your cute tp roll heart card is finished!

How to make our handprint flower cards
Start by taking the piece of card that you are going to use for the main body of your card. Fold it in half so that your fold stretches along the longest part of your card so that you have a long thin card rather than a regular sized one.
Cut a small section off the bottom of the card, approximately 4cm thick. And then pop the small piece aside for later.
Place your little ones’ hand onto the coloured card that you will be using for your flower head and use a pencil to draw around it. Once you have your handprint, use a pair of scissors to cut it out.
Now take your green card and cut out a long thin strip to make the flower stem, glue the stem onto the back of your handprint flower.
Next, glue the flower onto your card with the handprint near the top. Cut out some little leaves and glue them in position on either the side of the stem, wherever you think looks cute.
Take the small section of card that you snipped off the main body of your card and cut out a small heart from it. Glue the heart onto the handprint flower.
Finally use your pen to add any cute little personalised message; these cards are great for a whole host of occasions!
You’re finished! I bet your cards look beautiful, did you know you can now share them with us on Facebook?!

How to make our tissue paper hearts
start by taking your piece of card and folding it in half as if you were making a greetings card.
Take your pen and starting at the fold draw the shape of one half of a heart with the bottom point sitting in the bottom left corner. Now draw a second half heart just inside the first one trying to leave an equal gap between both hearts all the way around. We make our hearts around 2cm wide, that way they’re thick enough to look good but not so thick they take all day to cover!
Now its time to cut out your heart shape. Start by cutting out the larger outside heart that you drew and then cut out the smaller heart inside. Open up your piece of card so that the heart is full and flat.
Take your tissue paper and cut out several colourful squares, ours were roughly 4cm x 4cm. Cover a section of your heart in glue and then take your squares one by one, scrunch them into a ball and glue them down onto the heart.
Continue this process all the way around until your heart is fully decorated and looking fabulous and colourful! Pop it aside to dry until the tissue paper is secure.
once dry flip your heart over. Take a length of string or yarn and tie it into a loop of your desired size. Use a strip of tape to secure the loop onto the back of the heart and you’re finished! your super cute tissue paper hearts are ready to hang and display or to give to that somebody special.

How to make our 3D heart cards
Take your piece of card and fold it in half ready for your design.
Next you will need to cut out 5 identical hearts. We did three of one colour and then two of another. Once you have all your hearts fold them in half at the centre point.
Take one heart of each colour. Glue one half of each heart and then stick them together as can be seen in the image above.
Continue this process by continuing to add hearts on either side alternating the colours until you have your completed 3D heart.
Glue the heart down onto the front of your card and cut out and add a smaller heart on either side.
Finish off your card by adding a special personalised message at the bottom and your card is ready to gift to someone special!

How to make our Pom Pom love bunnies
Start by taking your coloured yarn and wrapping it around your fingers several times until you have a good, chunky amount stacked up.
Gently remove the yarn from you fingers. Take a small length of string and tie it across the centre of your Pom Pom ensuring that you pull it very tight.
Take your scissors and cut all the way around the edge of the Pom Pom at the centre of the loops.
Fluff your Pom Pom up and trim the scraggly ends to get it into shape.
Next take your felt and cut out a large heart shape for the feet and two outer bunny ears. Optionally also cut two inner ears from patterned paper and glue them onto the felt outer ears
Glue the feet in place on one side of the pom Pom and the ears on the other side.
Add two Googly eyes and a little Pom Pom nose to make the face.
Cut out a little strip of foam (or card), add a little heart to one end and then glue the other end to the feet of your bunny. Finally add a special message and your super cute Pom Pom bunny message is ready to deliver to someBUNNY special!
