Valentine Bouquets

I was in a Mommy chat room recently and several moms were talking about making Valentines with their kids for family and friends. I immediately thought of this cute and easy art project. It works great as a craft project to do with your kids or a cover to a Valentine's Day card.


All you need is:
  1. Construction Paper
  2. Crayons
  3. Heart stickers (I used foam stickers for a 3-D effect)
  4. Cupcake baking cups
  5. Glue

Just glue the baking cups onto your paper. You can use as many as you want. Then, add stems and leaves below the flowers. Last, embellish with your heart shaped stickers.

This project also makes a really cute Valentine's Day card. Just fold your 8.5" x 11" paper in half and use the smaller size baking cups for the flowers.

You can also get creative with what you put inside the flowers. I used hearts, but you could use anything. Cut-outs of your child's picture would look really cute on a Grandparents card!
