How to Make a Bear Heart Craft – DIY Valentines Day Card
What you need:
- our bear card template (optional)
- construction paper in various brown colors (or alternatively coloring supplies)
- scissors
- glue
- googly eye stickers or black marker
Step by Step Tutorial
Start by printing the template.
If your kids are going to color the template parts, we recommend they color it before cutting. If they will use it as stencils to trace on construction paper… Cut away!
Trace the two joining hearts on light brown construction paper.
Also trace the bigger heart (marked as ears) on the same paper.
Trace the small (not smallest) heart – snout – on beige paper.
And the smallest one on dark brown or black paper.
Cut out all the heart shapes.
Fold the two joined hearts into a card.
Apply glue on the part of the “ears” heart and stick them on the back of the heart card.
Flip around. Apply glue on the beige “snout” heart and stick it on the card.
Last but not least, stick the nose to the card.
Open up the card and write in your note.
I love you bear-y much seems appropriate :).
Add two googly eyes or draw the eyes on your card and you are done.
Congratulations! Your heart bear card looks amazing.
