If you can get your hands on some
fancy colored paper, this simple layout can make a really nice card. I
used some sample rice papers from an old scrapbook collection that
worked well.1. Fold letter-size white card stock paper in half to make a 5.5" x 8" card. Random squares and rectangles were cut to fit the paper in a loose grid, and were glued in place. Glue sticks work best so there are no wrinkles.
2. With the scraps remaining, they are folded them in half to cut hearts that would fit each square or rectangle, i.e. tall skinny heart for a tall skinny box, etc. Glue them in place when they are finished. That’s it – there’s nothing quite like a homemade Valentine card.
