Valentine chip board earrings

Valentine chip board earrings

This is a fun little valentines project.  It is easy enough that Tweens or teens could help or make on there own.  You will need chip board circles. Mine are from a pre-printed pack of chip board designs. The circles I used measure about 1 1/2 inches.  I also used some old printed music and red glitter card stock.  You will also need a circle punch or cutting machine to match the size of your chip board circle,  a heart punch or pre-cut hearts, glossy affects or crystal accents glaze,  earring hooks and jump rings, a small hole punch, and tacky glue.  I know that sounds like a lot of supplies, I promise this really is a simple craft.  First punch or cut circles out of desired background paper, also punch or cut hearts.  Glue your background paper onto your chipboard circles,  next center the hearts and glue onto top of backgroud paper.  Apply the glossy affects glaze and wait for it to completely dry.   Punch a small hole at the top of the circle and attach the earring hooks using a jump ring.  Now you have some fun valentine earrings.  I also made a matching ring.  To make the ring simply attach some elastic on the back of the chip board circle with hot glue.
