On the wrong side of the bear template, stick double-sided tape around the window, or you can use super glue and glue a transparent film cut from a cover or oilcloth.
Then glue the border for the hearts onto the tummy with double-sided tape. Cut out small colored hearts and place them inside the window, and cover with another transparent film on top.

Making a Valentine card from threads - easy and simple
By making an unusual Valentine's card with your own hands, you will certainly delight your loved ones with an original surprise. Making a valentine from threads is easy and simple - even a child can do it. The Valentine card turns out delicate and very cute.
We will need:
- Threads
- PVA glue
- Safety pins
- Cardboard
- Food film
- Scissors
The first thing to do is cut out the heart template. To ensure that it has the correct shape, you can use a ruler and compass. To do this, draw a square and mark the middle on both sides, from this middle, draw semicircles with a compass. Cut out the finished heart. You can also draw a heart of any shape yourself. It's up to your taste and desire.
Attach the heart template to the cardboard base and insert the needles along the contour at a distance of 1 cm between them. Then remove the heart template; it will no longer be useful.
Prepare the threads from which the Valentine will be made. Dilute PVA glue with a small amount of water and lower the threads there.
Squeeze the threads a little from the glue and, hooking them onto the needles, form a heart until the threads run out. Then use a brush to coat the entire heart with glue, especially the areas near the needles. Leave the heart to dry for a day.
Once the heart is dry, carefully remove the needles and separate it from the cardboard base. Trim any loose threads.
The finished heart can be coated with glitter nail polish and decorated with rhinestones. Or add artificial flowers and large beads. In general, give free rein to your imagination.

Attach the heart template to the felt with needles and cut out 2 pieces of a large heart.
Cut out one small heart from felt of a different shade.
Using a glue gun, glue a silver satin ribbon in the middle of the heart, then glue a white lacy ribbon on top of the silver one. 
Glue a small heart on top of the ribbons in the middle.
Fold the edges of the tapes and glue them to the inside.
Take the second heart, a needle and thread and sew the pieces together. Sew on a loop.
