Paper Heart Snail Valentine Craft Supplies:
* Paper Trimmer
* Small Paper Heart Doilies – one per snail card {any color you like}
* Colored Cardstock {again, any color you like}
* Tape Runner Adhesive/Glue Stick
* Paper Craft Scissors
* Large Glue Dots
* Markers
* Wiggle Eye Stickers
* Chocolate Heart Candies – one per snail card {I used Reeses}
Directions:
* First things first – use adhesive to adhere your paper heart doily to the center of a single sheet of cardstock. This will be the snail’s shell.
* Next take your cardstock and cut out a body for the snail. Adhere it your original cardstock piece.
* Next glue on the wiggle eyes so your snail can see.
* Take your marker and draw on antennas
* 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 snail. I do not suggest these to go in an envelope but I think you knew that already :-)
* Add other embellishments you see fit, along with your chocolate heart as the center of your Valentine {use large glue dots for this step!}
* Finally – it’s time to give away your Valentine’s Day snail card creation to the lucky receiver!
