Thank you Roopa for letting me know about the Collaborative HeArt Project. ..
Jamie from Handsonaswegrow is putting together a collaborative fundraiser between bloggers. This is a heart project because all proceeds from this fundraiser will go to the American Heart Association [AHA]. As part of this, She is creating a 12x12 collaborative eBook/physical book of kids' art and crafts projects that are related to 'hearts'. The details are at her blog here..Here is our contribution to that..

Melted Crayon Hearts
Please help me choose a picture to submit..
Jamie I will email you the high resolution pics.
Here's how you can make this super easy craft
- Materials - A small candle preferably a votive, color coordinated crayons, an A4 sheet and scissors.
- Draw a heart shape with a black marker on an A4 sheet
- Melt the tip of the crayon [ be sure to remove the paper packaging before you attempt] and drip onto the sheet. Heat, Drip, Heat, Drip. Repeat till whole area is covered in dots.
- Once completed, cutout the heart and paste onto a card sheet [ alternately you can craft on the cardstock directly]
- The crayon dot tends to chip off after a few days. A coat of Modpodge does the trick of keeping them in place.
The last two are made by Lil P with intermediate hand holding. :) The Blue is for hubby and red for me.. She pasted it on a card and wrote I Love Dad and I love Mom :) I think I'm going to frame this one.
This project is open to all.. If you would like to contribute, contact
