With Valentine's day being less than two weeks away. I decided to upload a video about making valentines day crafts. I made a chocolate covered heart with a candy center. I created this out of torn pieces of brown scrapbook paper. I decoupaged these scraps on a piece of brown paper bag. After I let this dry, then I cut out my hearts. Then, I added plain scrapbook paper to the back. I stamped a design to the back and colored it in with colored pencils. Then I decorated the front of the heart with ribbon and paper roses. For the candy center, I used a matching flatback acrylic bead. This was an easy craft to make for valentines day. It would be perfect as a valentines day gift for her or a valentines day gift for him. If you make this heart for a man, I would leave off the flowers and ribbon. Maybe you could use stars and buttons instead. Also you could alter this valentines day gift and use different color paper. The chocolate heart can also be made into a personalized valentines day gift by adding the person's name. This would also be a great project for a valentine's day crafts for kids. This can also be used as a valentines day card as well.

Feb 6, 2012 - I tore the paper towards me. When you tear the paper going away from you, you won't see white. but when you tear it coming towards you, you'll get the white edge. I hope this helps. God bless, Chan
