How to Make
1. Roll out the clay to the thickness of a one-pound coin using a rolling pin to ensure it’s nice and level.
2. Cut the hearts using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, or alternatively create a paper template, apply to the clay and use a craft knife to cut them out. Stamp your message using wooden alphabet stamps. Remove excess clay and leave to set hard – to avoid the clay cracking and curling up, place each of the hearts on a wire cooling rack.
3. Once the clay has set, use a fine sandpaper to lightly remove any rough edges.
4. Use pastel coloured craft paint to decorate.
