To make the design we will use several overlapping ovals and we will place them to create the shape of the hand and fingers. When we have the desired shape, we select all the shapes and click on combine join. We make a copy and we click to reflect horizontally. We place both shapes in such a way that they come together and we can join them. Select both shapes and click on combine join. 

Then we are going to generate its outline in 6 and make a copy. Finally, 

we are going to create a heart that fits in the space between the hands. We make a copy and add the text to one of them. 

We have our design ready. 

Note: I have made all the double parts because I wanted the design to be chubby and my wood is 3mm, if you have 5mm thick wood just doing each part once would fit you well.

Once we have our pieces we can leave it in wood color or paint it. I decided to paint it so I painted the hands white and made a few drops on each side with black simulating a glove. 

Then I painted the heart in red. 

Once dry we are going to glue the two parts of the base together, the two parts of the hands together and the two hearts together. 

When it is well glued we are going to glue the hands on the base leaving a margin, We will try to square it to leave the same margin everywhere. 

Finally, we are going to glue the heart in the center of the hands. Let everything stick well. 

Finally, we will pour matte spray varnish over the entire surface. 

 

We have already finished our project.
