Yes, it's that time of year again — Valentine's Day! This is the one day a year we make a particular point to show those we love just how much we care about them.
So don't be a Last-Minute-Lucy! This year, hit them with all the feels with one of these five gorgeous V-Day cards that you can DIY.
And no worries, if you miss anything in the steps below, we've attached our video at the end!
First up, we have this overly adorable (in my opinion) heart garland card.
Fold colored card stock in half.
Using a hot glue gun, attach a string from the left side of the card to the top, and repeat the same thing again below your first garland.
Using a heart hole punch, punch hearts out of pretty paper.
If you aren't the craftiest person out there, you can at least have fun with this part! I love a fail-safe DIY!
Hot glue hearts to the strings to complete your garland.
Feel free to get creative with fun colors! Honestly, who wouldn't want to receive this in the mail?
Time to kick it up a notch with this intricate string art valentine!
Fold colored card stock in half, and then trace any heart shape onto the front of the card.
Using a needle, poke holes around the perimeter of the outline.
Watch your fingers though or you might get pricked. Like I did. More than once.
Using a needle and thread, sew lines across the heart.
Not going to lie — this is a super easy way to make it look like you can create that most intricate art.
Continue threading the string until the inside is sufficiently filled in, and it's easy to make out the heart shape.
And there you have it!
Try this Puzzle Piece valentine for that extra special someone.
Find two puzzle pieces that fit together.
I used two pieces from an old puzzle we had in the closet.
Paint them gold (or any color your wish).
For ours, we used an acrylic paint pen.
Fold black card stock in half, and glue the puzzle pieces to the front of the card.
Now this is where the magic happens.
Using the same acrylic paint pen, we wrote a romantic message underneath. Can you think of anything sweeter?
Up next, we have the Cupid's Arrow Valentine's card.
This is for those who are seriously lovestruck!
Fold the card stock in half. Use any color of washi tape that appeals to you to make a perimeter around the card.
Using a heart cutout and a piece of chalk, rub over the heart and onto the card to make a negative space outline of the heart.
Using more washi tape, make a little arrow that looks like it’s going through the heart.
And, Voilà! You're done!
And finally, the confetti valentine!
And let's be honest — who doesn't love confetti?
Fold card stock in half. Cut a rectangle out of the center of the front side of the card.
Using a clear plastic bag, cut out a shape that’s larger than the hole you made.
Between the two layers of plastic, place glitter, or confetti.
Just another good reason to use that adorable hole punch.
Using clear tape, close all the edges of the plastic bag. Then attach the plastic bag so that it can be seen from the front using clear tape.
Just look at these beauts!
