  • Red/purple/pink paints

  • Cotton ball

  • Clothespins

  • A photograph cut in the shape of a heart

  • Transparency paper

  • Scissors

Easy Steps:


  • Glue the heart shaped photograph onto your white paper or canvas

  • Cut out a heart shape from the transparency paper to the same size of your photograph

  • Using your double-sided tape, tape the clear paper over your photograph

  • Attach a cotton ball to a clothespin (one for each color)

  • Have your little ones dip the cotton ball into the different colored paints

  • Let them stamp around the whole page
