Paper Doily and Chocolate Lion Valentines
Kids can typically make these DIY pieces by themselves {mom MIGHT have to step in for a little guidance or directions} but really, these are great for any school age kid to recreate by themselves AND have some awesome customization at their fingertips as well.
Whether for a boy or girl – these are sure to be a real winner in the classroom! I promise!
So happy crafting {and gifting} my friends!!! Be sure to snap a few pictures to share on our Facebook page wall, before you give them away! #gluedtomycraftsinspiresyou
PAIR YOUR CHOCOLATE AND PAPER DOILY LION CARDS WITH —> Paper & Paint Splat Lions – Kid Craft Tutorial
Paper Doily Lion Valentine Supplies:
* Paper Trimmer/Scissors
* Small White Heart Doilies
* Colored Cardstock {yellow/pink}
* Black Sharpie Marker
* Large Wiggle Eyes
* Tape Runner Adhesive/Glue Stick
* Large Glue Dots
* Chocolate Heart Candies {I used Reeses}
Directions:
* First things first – whether using scissors or a paper trimmer, trim down your yellow cardstock into 5×5 inch squares. You will want ONE yellow piece per valentine.
* Next use your tape runner to adhere your paper doily heart to the center of the yellow cardstock. Repeat for each valentine.
* Following that, use a large glue dot to add your heart chocolate as the nose of the lion, at the bottom tip of the heart.
* Now take your wiggle eyes and add those on in the center of the paper doily.
* Grab your pink cardstock and scissors. Cut out TWO small ears for the lion. Adhere those on to your valentine.
* Next take your black Sharpie marker and draw lines of “hair” all around the face of your newly made lion.
* Add other embellishments you see fit – like bows, glitter etc!
* Finally – it’s time to your lion themed valentines gift away!
