Print

  1. Step 1: Ribbon band

    Across the middle of your paper, draw a long band that curves like a smile, with 2 short ends.

    Tip Keep the band the same width all the way along.

  2. Step 2: The big heart

    Behind the band, draw a big heart: 2 round humps above it and a point below it.

    Tip The heart is a bit narrower than the band, so the band pokes out on both sides.

  3. Step 3: Ribbon tails

    Start halfway down each band end. Draw a tail out to a V cut, then back to the band's corner.

  4. Step 4: Little folds

    From the inside corner of each tail, draw a short line up to the band. It makes a tiny triangle.

    Tip The triangle is where the ribbon folds back behind itself.

  5. Step 5: The shine

    In the heart's left hump, draw a small tilted oval for a shine.

  6. Step 6: Tiny hearts

    Low beside the big heart, draw a tiny heart on each side.

  7. Step 7: Sparkles

    High above each ribbon tail, draw a sparkle star with 4 points.

  8. Step 8: Yellow ribbon

    Colour the ribbon band, its 2 tails and the sparkles yellow.

  9. Step 9: Pink hearts

    Colour the 2 tiny hearts pink.

  10. Step 10: Orange folds

    Colour the 2 tiny fold triangles orange.

  11. Step 11: Red heart

    Colour the heart red above and below the ribbon, leaving the shine white. Your heart with a ribbon is done!
