You guys – we have DONE it again!
If you have been a long time reader of Glued To My Crafts, you should know how much we love our KEEPSAKE PRINTABLE IDEAS around here {especially when the holidays come around!}
So on that note, I have another SIMPLE DIY idea that can be easily framed and turned into a gift on the fly for the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday.
This Handprint “You Make My Heart Float” Hot Air Balloon Keepsake w/free printable template is super easy to make within minutes and it’s relatively inexpensive too!
You can also add materials to reflect personality and style, while still keeping the price on the cheap! We are talking CENTS to pull this Valentine-themed craft together today!
No need to stress! We made it SUPER easy just for you! #gluedtomycrafts
All you need is a color printer, craft paint and your child’s sweet little hand to make this DIY come to life! And not only are you making sweet memories together, but you are also creating a great one-of-a-kind keepsake that anyone can treasure for years to come {plus the finished piece fits nicely in a scrapbook too!}
In this post, I’ve included a FREE hot air balloon printable template, so all you need to do is print the file, grab some craft paint and have your children add their handprint to complete the craft. Then add scrapbook stickers {or your personal handwriting} to finish it off. It’s so simple, you have NO excuse NOT to do it!
So what are you waiting for? Download the file below and get to work on creating this adorable Handprint Valentine DIY today! Then place in a beautiful frame or in a scrapbook for the lucky receiver to enjoy on Valentine’s Day.
I hope you enjoy making it with your child! Happy crafting, my friends! #gluedtomycrafts

Hi Stacey! I wanted to download this attachment but it doesn’t match. It looks like the Hold My Hand Today but my Heart Forever attachment.
