CLOTHESPIN VALENTINE!
from Martha Stewart television
WHAT YOU NEED?
wooden clothespin
decorative paper
tacky glue
card stock or other heavy-weight paper
1/16" circular punch or paper edger (optional)
HOW TO MAKE?
Use the clothespin to determine the desired size of your heart. Fold a piece of card stock in half, place the clothespin again the seam, and mark the top and bottom of the clothespin. Draw half a heart from the seam edge of the card stock that is slightly larger than the marks. Keep the card stock folded and cut out the heart. Use this as a template to trace out hearts from the decorative paper. Make a front and back heart for each clothespin.
Cut out the heart. Apply tacky glue to one side of the clothespin, and affix the heart. Repeat on the opposite side. If desired, use the paper edgers to decorate the heart, or try punching out small holes around the outside border of the heart.
