2. Cut out the patterns from the template.

3. Trace eight small hearts on various colors of construction paper for the flower, and trace four small hearts on the green construction paper.

4. Cut out the traced hearts. (You could also color the hearts directly on the template and cut those out.)

5. Trace the medium-sized heart onto white construction paper and cut out.

6. Take the small, colored heart cut outs and fold them all into half vertically.

7. Place the white, medium-sized heart cutout on a flat surface and use liquid glue or a glue stick to attach the folded small hearts onto it, forming a flower. (Be sure to keep the pointy side of the hearts at the center and the curvy parts facing outward.)

8. Glue the 4 green heart cutouts next to the flower pattern to form leaves.
