New year, new goals! We are on a roll today on Glued To My Crafts!
So grab your coffee, take a seat and let me tell you more about this Paper Peeking Valentine Cat kid craft idea!
Paper Valentine Heart Cat Craft
If you are new around here, WELCOME! I’m so excited that you landed on today’s Peeking Valentine Cat craft post tutorial.
One thing I like to say to those who visit our website for the first time, is that I LOVE sharing EASY kids craft ideas that don’t take a lot of supplies or extra work to pull together.
I can honestly say that STRIVE to share kids craft ideas on Glued To My Crafts, that can be easily done within minutes.
On that note, throughout the years I have also learned what my readers really love from from our website {and keep coming back for!} They love when I share craft ideas that also come along with FREE PRINTABLES.
This makes it easy for anyone, to pull together my original designed idea without much thought or even creativity {so if you say you lack the crafty skills, we can still help you!}
These printables help you go from blah to WOW without the added frustration.
So anyways… with the free cat face and paws template I’ve included below, you can make a Valentine’s Day themed piece with your child, within minutes. I think the hardest part is probably picking the perfect heart shapes for your adorable Valentine cat to hold!

Directions:
- First things first – print out the cat template that is listed above in the supply list.
- Print it out on a piece of simple white cardstock paper. You need ONE cat printable per Valentine’s Day craft.
- Next up – grab the crayons {or markers, pencils etc.} and color in the face and paws in the cat printable. I went with gray cats but you can do whatever color you like!
- Once done with the coloring step, trim out each section in the printable and set them aside. You will have ONE head and TWO paws to work with.
- Discard excess paper.
- Now grab all your heart shapes and the stapler.
- Start layering them {biggest to smallest} and staple them all together to secure in place.
- Now you are ready to staple the cat face piece you made earlier, to the back of the entire heart piece, so it looks like she/he is peeking out from behind it {so it looks like the cat is holding the heart!}
- Follow that up by stapling the cat paws in place but on the front of the design. Again, it will look like the cat is holding the heart.
- To finish off the Valentine cat craft, add the wiggle eyes so your feline friend can see.
- Add other embellishments you see fit before displaying proudly!
