Materials
- A5 Card stocks
- Watercolour paint & brush (*You can use Coloured Card Stocks.)
- Cord Mat or coaster
- Sewing thread & needle
- Pre-print Heart shaped dotted keylines
Yarn is much preferred but with shops closed and movement restricted during circuit breaker, simply use the sewing thread that's available at home.
STEP 1 (To skip this step if using coloured card stocks.)
Use watercolour and paint ombre tone on one side of the card.
Keep it aside and let dry.

Print the template as provided in A4 size paper.

Use a needle and poke holes.
Follow the dotted lines as printed in the template as a guide.

STEP 5
Now you are ready to sew.
Choose any colours of the thread you like and start sewing crisscross.
Yarn will have a better effect as it's thicker and will create a more 3D feel, however if you are unable to find any yarn at home, simply just use sewing thread.
