Begin by laying your fabric flat with the design side facing down. Use the heart template and a pencil to trace out a few hearts.

Cutting Out Traced Hearts

Use your scissors to cut out each of the traced hearts from the fabric.

Adding Fabric Hearts and Mod Podge

Next, take your paintbrush and start applying the fabric Mod Podge. Apply the Mod Podge to each fabric heart one at a time and gently press it onto the tote.

I used my heating tool and then applied a layer of Mod Podge on top of the fabric heart.

Optional-Adding Fabric Paint

This is optional. I chose to add fabric paint around each of the fabric hearts, using blue and red colors.
