Paper Heart Doily Gnome Valentines

I’ve got GNOME crafts coming out of our ears at Glued To My Crafts!

And since you landed on today’s paper heart gnome cards post, I bet you are super excited to add some of these adorable paper friends to your Valentine’s Day craft plans – right?! After all – gnomes have taken a HUGE leap from the garden this past year and have become a very hot trend as of late!

So on that note, today we are going to forgo the traditional look of a paper heart doily on paper and turn them upside down to give our gnome a long, white beard! Who knew, right?!

From there, all you need is a basic triangle hat on top and a small heart sticker in the center, for his nose. EASY PEASY steps and supplies – especially if you need to make a HUGE stack all at once.

Anyways – I’ll let you get to it so you can make these for friends, family or even for in the classroom! You can find all the crafty details in the full tutorial below, as well as some cute Valentine’s Day kid friendly jokes to include inside the cards!

Paper Heart Doily Gnome Valentines - Kid Craft Idea

This fun and easy Paper Doily Gnome Valentine’s Day craft is perfect for your kids. Make them in just a few minutes with our step by step tutorial!

Card Supplies:

  • White Paper Heart Doilies
  • Cardstock Cards
  • Valentine Scrapbook Paper
  • Paper Craft Scissors
  • Tape Runner Adhesive
  • Glue Dots or Glue Pop Up Dots
  • Large Heart Stickers
  • Black Sharpie Marker

Directions:

  • First things first – if you aren’t using pre-folded cards, go ahead and make one now. You will want ONE card piece per paper doily gnome craft.
  • Next use your glue dots {or pop up dots} to adhere your white, paper doily heart to the front/center of the cardstock card but you want the heart upside down. Repeat for each valentine you are making today. This is the gnome’s beard and head.
  • Following that step, cut out a simple triangle shape from the scrapbook paper.
  • Adhere the triangle piece to the tip of the paper heart doily to create his hat.
  • To finish off your doily gnome valentine, simple add his heart shaped “nose” to the center of it all, to tie it together.
  • Go ahead and also write a quirky saying like “I GNOME you” or “I love you GNOME matter what” on the outside of the card as well.
  • Then add other embellishments you see fit – like bows, glitter, stamped sentiments etc.!
  • Don’t forget to write a message inside 🙂
  • Finally – it’s time to give your paper doily gnome valentines away!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
