Ever notice how clover leaves look like hearts? This is a cute card you can make with cardboard tubes from toilet paper and a bit of paint.
Total Time: 45 minutes
Yield: 1 card
Supplies:
- 1 cardboard tube from toilet paper
- scissors
- paintbrush
- green paint
- red paint
- 1 piece card stock
- glue
- marker

Steps:
- Press down on cardboard tube so the long edges have defined folds.

- Cut off a little less than half of the tube.

- Cut the smaller section in half, then those two pieces in half again so you have four equal strips of tube.

- Poke one of the folded edges downward into itself to create a heart shape.

- Repeat with the rest of the tube pieces.

- Paint 3 of the hearts green.

- Paint 1 heart red. Allow them to dry.

- Dab a small amount of glue on the edges of a green heart.

- Press down onto the card stock.

- Glue the other 2 green hearts next to it.

- Glue the red heart at the top right to complete the 4 leaf clover.

- To make the stem and beginning of your sentiment, draw an elongated cursive L coming out from under the clover.

- Continue to write "lucky in love".

- The glue will turn clear as it continues to dry all the way through.
