    Get 2 pieces of cerise pink felt. Draw out a heart shape onto the inside of one of the pieces of felt, you can make this as big or as small as you wish.

  2. 2

    Cut it out and get the the second piece of felt and pin them together so you can cut around and have 2 hearts.

    Using a different shade of pink felt, cut out a smaller heart that will fit onto the front of one of the bigger hearts

    Take one of the bigger hearts and stitch the smaller heart onto it.
    also stitch the word 'love' onto the front.

  5. 5

    Then cut out a small triangle type shape that will be sewn onto the back of the heart for a pouch.

    Pin all the pieces together on the bottom half and use stuffing to pad out the heart.

  7. 7

    Pin the rest of the heart and stitch around. and you're done!
    You could also stitch in a piece of ribbon before you sew up the heart so you can hang it up if you want :)

    Then after all that write out your little love note and pop it inside!
