Spiral Heart Card

Designed by: Kathy Wegner

Skill Level: Beginner

Use your heart punch with Iron-on thread to make a colorful, sparkling, and cheerful gift card. The metallic threads peek through the heart holes to delight the person receiving your heart-felt gift. It’s so easy to create, you’ll want to make a dozen! This is a fun project for greeting card clubs, church groups, and senior centers.

Materials needed:

  • • 3” x 5” plain white index card or white cardstock 
  • • small piece of red cardstock 
  • Kreinik Iron-on #16 Braid in 6130 Red, 6580 Violet, 6450 Royal Blue, 6350 Green, 6250 Orange 
  • Kreinik Adhesive Press Cloth*
  • 1 1/2” heart punch (we used Marvy Uchida extra jumbo 1 1/2” craft punch)
  • other supplies: scissors, iron or mini iron, ironing surface, paper adhesive

*If your iron isn't non-stick or Teflon coated, we recommend that you get one of our Adhesive Press Cloths. It will keep the adhesive in the thread from sticking to your iron. They come in various sizes. Apply to a cool iron. 

Instructions:

Turn your iron onto the highest heat setting and let it heat thoroughly.

  1. Place red cardstock on ironing surface. With Teflon press cloth over threads, iron red thread onto red cardstock in spiral designs. Punch heart shape from red cardstock.
  2. Fold 3” x 5” card in half to make a gift card. With press cloth over threads, iron spirals on card front, using all colors of braid. Adhere heart to card front.
