  2. Trace both hands inside with a pencil.
  3. Spread glue around inside the hand prints with your finger.
  4. Sprinkle glitter all over. Pour off the excess. The picture here used A LOT of glitter.
  5. If desired, add a lacy border to your heart.

Version 2

  • pencil
  • red and pink paint
  • glitter(optional)
