Hearts with Glitter
These home made Valentine's Day cards are really pretty, and simple for kids
of all ages to make themselves.
The picture doesn't do these cards justice!
We cut a simple heart shape out of red card, and then painted (left)
the whole front of the heart or (right) the edges of the heart with school
(PVA) glue. We then dipped the heart into a saucer of glitter.
This is great fun but very messy! Put lots of newspaper down before you
start, and please make sure that the children keep their fingers away from
their eyes until all the glitter is washed off.
When the hearts were dry, we fixed them to our cards with a small
square "sticky fixer" so that the heart lies slightly proud of
the card. You could cut a small square of corrugated cardboard or foam to
do the same job.
