You can put the color you want and the name to make it totally personalized. It can be used as a keychain or placed in the bag for adornment.
Makings:

- Decorated paper (If you use a paper, the red tones will be more suitable for these dates).
- Carabiner (You can also reuse another keychain that no longer works for you).
- Glue.
- alkyl.
- Brush.
- Big Shot (It could be cut with a cutter if this tool is not available).
- Eyelet or brooch.
- Crop a tell or a punch.
- Permanent marker.
- Lima.
- Ink.
- Pliers.
Step by Step:
- Glue the decorated paper on both sides of the cardboard and let it dry.

- Pass a file around the contour to remove burrs or leftovers from the paper.
- Ink the edge of the heart, to give it a more professional finish.
- It's time to put your calligraphy to the test. Write the name in nice handwriting of the recipient. Do it with a permanent pen.
