Believe it or not, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.. Whether you’re the buy the premade box of cards Mom or the Try everything on Pinterest Mom, you’ll love this sweet, Super Easy handmade card you can do with any age.
Supplies needed:
- plain white prepackaged cards and envelopes – available at craft stores
- red or pink acrylic paint
- a dish sponge
Grab a dish sponge and cut it into a heart shape – use a small cookie cutter as a pattern if needed. (Just dip the cookie cutter in some paint or use a stamp pad and transfer the design to the sponge.)
Dampen the sponge and wring it out so that it’s pliable but barely wet. Alongside your child (at least for the first few), dip the sponge into the red, or pink acrylic paint and then “stamp” the heart shape onto your white card. Have your child write or draw on the inside – no matter what it reads it will say “love.”
