Show your valentine how much you really love them with our oversized felt hearts!
Skill Level: Beginner
Time: 2 hours
Additional Supplies:
Heart Pattern (click to download)
Two 1/2" Thick Foam Boards (20 x 30"), per heart
Utility Knife
Pencil or Pen
Iron
Directions:
1. Print out Heart Pattern above (borderless, if you have that option) and tape together. The pattern will overlap about 1/4". Use shape to trace and cut out foam board pieces with a utility knife. I layered two sheets together to make a thicker heart.
2. Cut out 27 x 27" piece of felt, lay foam heart on top and trace a heart border about 4-5" from the foam edge. Cut notches every 1-3" and hot glue to the back of the heart to secure.
3. Add a phrase! I used the typestyle Antipasto from Font Squirrel sized to 280 points and cut it out on my electronic cutting machine. Don't forget to reverse the letters! You can also trace letters on felt easily using the freezer paper method. Iron felt letters to adhesive backing following product instructions. Iron onto center of felt heart.
Imagine your sweetheart when they receive this valentine!
