I saw this flower paper & got it because I thought it would look great as something...just wasn't sure what. Although I'm a crafting geek, I'm not big on scrapbooking. I've tried, but just can't get into it, so this paper project had to be E-A-S-Y. Here's what I did:
1. I printed out a photo of each of the kiddies on matte photo paper and carefully cut their heads out.
2. I traced out a heart on the floral paper so a bloom would be in the center of each & cut them out.
3. I Mod Podged their faces onto the petal part of each flower.
4. I printed out my message and cut it out in a heart shape & stuck that on the pink heart upside down.
5. To attach the hearts so they would fan, I poked a small hole in the base of each piece & used a sew-on snap to keep them together so they could still move.
Now if grandma wants to keep her "little lovebuds" out, she can open the snap & take out the pink heart and it'll be sweet all year long.
