Valentine Hearts Into St. Patrick's Day Shamrock

Super easy craft for the door using recycled Valentines!
I bought a cardboard Celtic Cross at the Dollar Tree Store. I thought it was very pretty but not hefty enough for the front door. To make it larger and more creatively pleasing to the eye, I turned it into a shamrock. I recycled three Valentine box lids and some left over green leaves from Christmas decorating to make a decoupaged St. Patrick's Day decoration.
Materials are: 3 cardboard heart lids,
A bunch of greenery (leaves) and green floral tape. (all dollar store project leftovers)
Glue the leaves on the entire surface, overlapping to the sides.
Then decoupage with Mod Podge or similar.
Wrap floral tape around the sides and decoupage.
When dried, use super glue to put the pointed ends of the heart together.
Add the Celtic Cross or any center decoration you'd like.
Add a ribbon for the top for hanging!
