Step 1

Fold a piece of construction paper in half and draw a half of heart along the fold; then cut out the shape through both halves. Unfold to reveal your heart shape.

Step 2

Repeat Step 1 three times to make four total hearts; however, with each heart, go down in size.

Step 3

Glue only the fold of each heart to the middle of your canvas board so both sides of your hearts are not attached.
TIP: Start with the largest heart, then add the next size until you end with the smallest heart. Use image as a guide.

Step 4

Use tissue paper squares to add texture around the hearts. To do so, wrap the square around an eraser on a pencil. Dip the end into glue and push the tissue square onto the surface of a heart. Repeat until your hearts are full, as shown. Let dry.
