Directions:
- First things first – use adhesive to adhere your red paper heart doily to the center of a single sheet of cardstock. You will want your heart to be upside down to give the look of a ladybug.
- Next use a large glue dot to add your heart chocolate as the head of the ladybug, at the tip of the heart.
- Take your black Sharpie marker and draw on antennas.
- Next, take some cardstock and trim/punch out embellishments for the body of the ladybug {like a line separately the two halves and heart “dots” for each side.}
- Now the final step – take your paper trimmer and NOW trim down your card to create the valentine. The size of yours may depend on how big you made your ladybug. I do not suggest these to go in an envelope but I think you knew that already 🙂
- Add other embellishments you see fit when done trimming.
- Finally – it’s time to your creation gift away!
