Ribbon Hearts

Another Pinterest idea I saw today. I started off with 1-1/2" squares of Melon Mambo. On the back of one, I drew a simple heart. (If drawing freehand terrifies you, punch a heart to trace or print one off the computer.) Then I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch holes around my heart, keeping them as spaced out as possible. (You could measure if you'd like but when it comes to this kind of stuff, I typically just eyeball.) I punched through all three pieces at once so the hearts would be the same size. I used 1/4" grosgrain ribbon and basically just back stitched in the hearts. Didn't take very long, but the result is pretty and is very Valentine-y, especially if you don't have a lot of heart stamps, like me!
