Simple Ribbon Heart Place Card
Originally published on Feb. 1, 2016. I’ve put a lot of projects on this blog over the past couple of years, many of which are pretty detailed and take quite a bit time. But I absolutely love an easy project and today’s is just that. This simple ribbon heart place card requires minimal supplies and is super quick to whip up.

Here’s what you need:
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Hot Glue Gun
- Paper
- Alphabet Stamps
- Stamp Pad
(I found these pretty, neutral ribbons a few weeks ago at World Market and knew I had to have them in my stash.)
To start, cut two equally sized pieces of ribbon. Mine were about 5 1/2 inches each.

Then, run a small bead of glue along one side of one ribbon and attach the other ribbon to it to create a heart shape.
To make the name tag, cut a small banner shape from a piece of paper and use the alphabet stamps and stamp pad to write the name.
Finally, add a dab of glue to the middle of the heart and attach the paper banner. Aren’t these cute?
These would be perfect for a party or even for a Valentine’s Day dinner. And, you could always change the wording on the paper to fit whatever occasion you choose. So many possibilities!

Oh my word! I’m so in love with this you have no idea. I am definitely teaching my kiddos how to make this on Valentine’s Day. Perhaps not as a place card, but I’ll change it up a bit so they can use it as a bookmark (third graders sure do love their bookmarks). Woo hoo! Thank you :)
