For our Paper Heart Mice Craft you will need colorful cardstock. For our mice, we used sheets of cardstock in two different shades of the same color for each mouse. Pink yarn, a 1” circle paper punch, white marker, small googly eyes, scissors, and glue are the rest of the supplies needed.

Cut a medium size heart shape through both pieces. Make sure the humps of the heart are big enough to make ears.

Glue small googly eyes onto the center of the front heart. Use the single hole punch or cut a small circle from the black paper and glue onto the tip of the heart for the nose. Draw two whiskers on each side of the nose.

Snip a strand of yarn about 4” long. Apply a bit of glue to one end of the yarn and roll between fingers to keep from fraying. Glue that end onto the center point of the back heart.
