1. First assemble your materials. For this valentines craft you will need:

2. In pencil draw a heart shape on to your card and then cut out a square shape around it.

3. Cover one side of the square completely with overlapping strips of double-sided sticky tape.

4. Cut out heart shape from the square.

5. Empty a good amount of glitter into a flat dish.

6. Place card sticky-side down and press firmly into glitter until covered.

7. Attach a cocktail stick to the reverse side with a small piece of tape.

8.  I also added a small rectangle of card below carrying the message “I love you…”, again securing to the cocktail stick with tape.

And here it is…

    I was thinking of those cake toppers that sit on the cake – the edible kind, and thought how are you going to do that with glitter lol.
    This is brilliant – am off to pin :)
