I am very lucky to have my mom stay in the flat next to ours and though I am "old and a big girl", I tend to rush to her with the slightest worry or problem .Also every evening my daughter gets to spend 2 hours at her grandma's place[that's my blogging time!]Recently my mom went on a religious pilgrimage and we missed her so much!As a "we love u" welcome back present we made these Foam Hearts.

These hearts were inspired by these heart crafts and we used glitter foam sheets, glittery pipe stem cleaners,googly eyes,foam punches,dies and magnets to make our Huggy Heart Magnets.  |

I die cut the hearts and letters for my daughter though she is adept at using the big shot as you can see in this post on
Ocean crafts.But she punched the foam hands on her own using her new foam punch[
If you have a child crafter buy lever type medium sized punches as they are so much easier for little hands].

I love foam crafts and the big pluses for me are that foam stays cleaner while crafting unlike paper[a big plus while crafting with kids] and lasts long.The big negative with foam crafts is what adhesive to use.Here my daughter is trying to glue her letters to the foam hearts but they kept swimming away![White glue on foam needs a lot of time and patience!]

My 6 year old crafter is quite knowledgeable about adhesives now and she said "Amma can we use glue dots?"Using the glue dots her heart faces were all done in 10 minutes!

We tried pipe stem cleaner bodies and I was thrilled that she was able to twist and turn the chenille stem sticks herself!

And here is our first
Huggy Heart using foam crafts.

We intertwined the sparkly hands and the feet and stuck them behind the foam heart

I used the glue gun to stick the foam hands to the pipe stem cleaners
