We cut out the Apli pink coloured paper in the shape of a heart and stick the two ends together Afterwards, we stick the Eva foam hearts on top. The bag contains a range of sizes and colours: white, red, pink, with dots, with glitter, little, large… The possibilities are endless! Mariposa7 STEP 2. Now let´s stick on the red stickers for decoration and to add a touch of colour. Mariposa5 STEP 3.
