Paper Heart Message Pockets
Tuck personal messages into the hearts on this accordion-folded card. Delight a relative, please your Valentine, or thank a loved one!
1. Fan-fold a long piece of construction paper in wide accordion (zig-zag) folds.
2. Use Crayola® Scissors to cut enough white paper hearts, flowers, or other symbols to put one on each face of your card.
3. Design hearts with Crayola Total Tools™ Write Color Pencils. Put a line of Crayola School Glue around the sides and bottom of the back of each heart and attach it to one of the card faces. Leave the top of each heart open to form a little pocket. Let the glue air-dry.
4. Add decorative outlines around each heart pocket with colored pencils.
5. Cut small pieces of paper, one per heart pocket. Write messages on each piece with colored pencils. Add a border around each message. Fold the messages and place them in the heart pockets.
6. Fold the card and deliver it to someone you love!
