Paper roll heart stamps

These Paper Roll Heart Stamps are super easy to make and create the sweetest painted hearts perfect for any Valentine’s Day greeting card!

My kids really enjoyed these, especially my daughter who was so diligent and creative with her colors and patterns. My son (3) did great too! He started of with a few hearts and made a collage. And then added some more hearts and more and more and more 🙂 Still looked pretty cool.
