These
make great Valentine's Day cards or decorations, and they're easy to do!
You will need:
Red, white, pink or purple construction paper
White glue
Crayons or colored pens
Scissors
Squares (1" x 1") of tissue paper
A pencil
Cut the tissue paper into small squares.
Draw a large heart shape on your piece of construction paper. Cut it
out if you want.
Pour a small amount of glue onto a plastic lid or piece of newspaper.
Place the pencil eraser in the middle of one of the squares of tissue
paper. Wrap the tissue paper around the end of the pencil - allow it to
wrinkle. Dip the end of the pencil/tissue paper into the glue, then press
it down on the construction paper. Lift the pencil out gently, leaving
the tissue paper on the heart. Continue in this way until you have your
heart completely decorated. You can work in rows, using different colored
tissue paper, or just place the tissue on any way you want.
NOTE: If you want to put something in the center of your heart, like
we did here, we recommend glueing or drawing it BEFORE you start placing
your tissue squares. It's much easier that way.
