Instructions:
Use the heart shape here or make your own template and trace 10 hearts of each color. Cut them out.

Glue the hearts, one on top of each other, alternating colors to make a pattern. Let the stack dry completely, then sand the hearts to even them out. You can sand at an angle or into the center or at the edges, whatever you wish.

Seal the pin using clear nail polish. Let dry and then attach the safety pin or pin backing to the back of the heart.
