Kid Designed Valentine's Day Decoration

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. To help get us in the mood (we are still currently listening to Christmas music and even today in the Starbucks drive thru T asked if we could go look at Christmas lights tonight), I am putting out some of our decorations. It includes this super easy and cherished project from N's preschool class two years ago. 
Sorry for the terrible pic!

Supplies:
frame
scrapbook paper
paint
glue
foam heart stickers

Prep Work for the Project:
These frames are $1 at Michaels. They come just as plain wood and since this was a class project, I went ahead and painted them all white (but if you do this at home, it would be super cute to let the little ones paint it). I printed out the Bible verse (my boys attend a Christian preschool, so it was more than appropriate to have a verse about the perfect love), glued it on scrapbook paper and put it in the frame. 
Project:
The actual project just involved the children decorating the frame with foam stickers (also from Michaels). Some children made patterns or covered the whole frame, N went for sporadic and then asked for his cookie ;).  Either way I have a cute decoration to put out year after year that reminds me of this sweet little guy.
