Mr. (or Mrs.) Valentine 

Valentine's Day Paper Craft


Although not a tp roll craft, this was one of my eldest daughter's favorite on Valentine's day when she was 4.  She worked on her crafting independence by cutting out the pieces and gluing them on by herself.  She still enjoyed an audience though!  A bow in the hair and some pink lipstick (er, printable of course) quickly turn Mr. Valentine into Mrs. Valentine.
