I Love You THIS Much Sign

Source: http://www.inspiremecrafts.com/inspireme_crafts/dollar_diva/page/2/







MATERIALS:

Wood base (mine was 5 x7 and found at Michaels for $1) - or you could use a canvas
Favorite paper
Construction Paper
Paint
Ribbon
Scissors
Glue
Stickers, or cricut cut letters, or print the saying on your computer.

TO DO:

1. Paint your wood a matching color to your paper. Let dry
2. Have your child make his/her own hand prints on the construction paper. Let dry. We did several so we could pick out the best ones. Have soapy water and paper towels right there to clean hands before he/she decorates your house :).
3. Cut paper to size to fit on front of wood. If paint has dried, adhere the paper to the front of the wood. I used a spray adhesive.
4. Use stickers, cricut letters, or print out the saying on your computer. Use "I love you this much". Adhere to front of wood.
5. Once the hand prints have dried, cut out around the hand prints and leave a little 'wrist and arm' when you cut so they can attach to the wood.
6. Add your child's name and date with a pen on the outer edge of the hand print.
7. Tape or glue the hand print 'wrist/arm' to the back of the wood so the hand print is facing the front. One on each side.
8. Glue some ribbon on the back so your child's dad can hang it up.
9. Add some photos, or if you child is old enough have them write the "I love you this much" message themselves.
