(An Easier) Handmade Valentine Card

| Comments (1)

An easy Valentine card.Earlier this week I posted one of my Valentine Card designs, but that card is somewhat involved and takes a bit of time - not good for people who send out several Valentine's Day cards.

I promised you an easier design, so here it is.



This one goes super-fast, once the paper is cut. Since it's only paper and ink, it's cheap too. Send this along with a Valentine package of candy and treats or all on its own.

To make this Valentine's Day card, I used the following supplies:

  • Cardstock - Stampin' Up Chocolate Chip, Pixie Pink and White
  • Ink - Stampin' Up Chocolate Chip and Pixie Pink
  • Stamp Sets - All-Year Cheer I and Gentler Times

I tore the brown paper to mat the stamped heart, and distressed the pink paper before attaching it to the brown mat. To make this go even quicker, or for a more formal look, you can skip these steps. To distress the paper, I run scissors up and down the edge of the cardstock until I get the desired look. Just keep your fingers out of the way!

I almost always make my cards with Stampin' Up products, but you can use this design with other stamps. You only need a heart stamp and a sentiment.
