How to Make a Paper Heart Banner

Valentine’s Day is just a month away and I created my first decoration for the holiday of love. It’s a very simple paper heart banner that you can make in less than an hour. I’m using it in a Valentine’s Day vignette that I’m sharing in a blog hop this Saturday.

Decorative scrapbook paper, a piece of colored twine, scissors, pencil, and glue.

 

Trace paper hearts to create a Valentine's bannerCut out a heart to trace; I’ve included a free hearts printable for you to download at the end of this post. Fold a piece of scrapbook paper in half, with the printed sides facing each other. Line the top of the heart at the top of the fold and trace.

 

Trace hearts onto folded scrapbook paperAfter tracing your hearts, cut them out being careful not to cut the top edge.

Unfold the hearts and fold them over so the printed side is facing out.
