Heart Doily Strawberry Cards For Valentine’s Day
Hi friends! It’s a NEW year and the Kids Craft Stars are joining forces once again to bring you a MONTHLY kid craft challenge post.
Every month this year, we will have a challenge between us bloggers to in-cooperate a different craft medium or theme into a simple tutorial. This month’s challenge was paper doilies and with Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it just seemed too perfect for this time of year! Especially since you can turn paper heart doilies into so many things!
So without further ado – today I present to you our Red Paper Doily Strawberry Cards tutorial that is not only super simple and perfect for kids of ALL ages but it’s also the perfect excuse to send some #happymail to friends & family this upcoming LOVESTRUCK holiday!
Check out the full tutorial below, as well as links to the other bloggers participating in this challenge.
