Yo-Yo Valentine

Hi there everyone, it's Andrea from The Cottage Market. I am so happy

to be doing a craft project along with a home DIY each month here at the

 Graphics Fairy.  Today's project is easy beyond belief and is a

perfect little token that kids of all ages will love.  It's a

Yo-Yo Valentine!

For this project you will need:

a yo-yo...you can find these plain wooden yo yo's at Tarjay in their $1 section...they come in different colors so you don't even have to bring out the paint!

Print the images of your choice...that's the hardest part...there is such a variety here it will take a while to make your decision.

Then you need a brush,  some Mod Podge and of course a scissors to cut the image. That's it!

Brush the Mod Podge on the entire circle top...

then if you are working with a square, place it right on top of the yo-yo...

allow it to dry.  If using a cut out...brush the Mod Podge on the back of the

image...wait a minute and then apply to the yo-you.

Now when the glue dries on the square one (approximately 5 minutes) Take a

sanding block or piece of sand paper and remove the excess paper...this works

great...smooth and perfect!  REPEAT on the other side...add a few coats of Mod Podge

over the images and you are done!  It's that easy.  You can add a little embellishment 

if you like and then pack it up in a cute little cello bag...attach a card and give someone

a smile!

They are cute...fast and fun.  Hope you enjoy this little craft and here's wishing

everyone a Happy Valentine's Day!...(((HUGS)))
