Thats a lot of love!
This homemade card is a wonderful gift to give to someone you have a lot of love for.
When they initiate the card and stretch out the arms, they will know just how much you care.
Save one piece for later.
Fold the other piece in half again to make the card.
This will make a card that fits perfectly into your homemade envelope more on that later!
If you like, it’s possible for you to round the edges of your card as we did.
Decorate the front of your card with the question, how much do I love you?
you might also add in other decorations if you like, but the question is the important part!
Fold it in half and draw half a heart shape.
Cut out the heart shape from the folded edge, then unfold to reveal your heart!
Next, make two more hearts that are slightly smaller the same way.
Keep the two smaller hearts folded.
Do the same thing with the second smaller heart on the other side of the big heart.
This will make your big heart pop up when the card is opened!
Now lets make the big arms that will stretch out!
you might secure it in place with a piece of tape, too.
Lets make the hearts hands!
Cut out two hearts for each hand, making one a little bigger than the other.
Add glue to one side of both hearts and sandwich the yarn between them, making a heart hand!
Then write on the top…I love you this much!
Now, well show you how to make a homemade envelope to put your card into!
A card with limbs this big needs a special envelope!
Make The Envelope!
This will be the size of your envelope, so verify your card fits within the fold!
Remove the card and keep your envelope folded.
Fold the flap over the top edge.
Now launch the folded sheet of paper.
Cut along those lines to cut off the top corners and the bottom rectangles.
Fold the center side tabs in and add glue to the top of the tabs.
Fold the bottom of the envelope up and stick it to the tabs.
Now your homemade envelope is ready for your homemade card!
Write the name of the person you plan to give the card to on the envelope.
Now all that is left to do is to make their day when you deliver your special card!
We know they are going to love it.
How much will they love it?
