  • Leftover yarn scraps

  2. Once you’re happy with your paper choice, cut out a simple heart template. I used one from online, but you can easily trace and cut your own by hand.

  3. Trace your heart template over some decorative paper that complements the main part of the card and cut it out. glue your heart shape directly in the middle of the card so it looks like this:
