Simple Valentine's Day Cards!

Simple Valentine's Day Cards!

Hello Fashionistas!

Yes, Valentine's Day is in 2 days! If you are like me, you probably forgot, and just realized that you need to make Valentine's Day cards. Guess what! I got ya covered! Here are 2 adorably simple cards to give to your loved ones. You can probably make these in just 15 minutes, so they are pretty much a life saver.
Also, this year, instead of keeping my cards, I sent them to a "Meals on Wheels" location! There's a project on DoSomething.Org, where you can send your v-day cards to a location of your choice, and they will distribute them to each older adult with a meal!

You'll need:

• Scissors
• Glitter, Glitter glue
• Carbon paper in different colors
• Glue
• Markers, Pencil etc.

Card No.1

 

This is such a cute and easy card… It didn't take me longer than 15 mins to make this actually, so it must be pretty easy! 

Instructions:

1. Use a pink carbon paper and fold it in half (Obviously)
2. Cut little hot pink paper hearts and write a letter in each for the word "Valentine's"
3. After writing 'Happy' using a black marker, glue the little hearts in a funky way.
4. Dress the inside of the card with white paper, which you'll use to write your wishes. (Fancy!)
5. Write "DAY!" in pink glitter glue (Old school style)
6. Cut a bigger heart and and glue cute sprinkles or colorful glitter to decorate
7. Write your wishes and send!

Card No.2

 
Such an adorable design! It's basically a circle of hearts, which I made out of old magazines and small pieces of pink, purple and red paper. It's made so quickly, that you can make 5 of those in 30 mins!

Instructions:

1. Use a purple carbon paper and fold in half
2. Cut out small and big hearts out of… basically anything
3. Form them into a circle design and when you are satisfied with the result glue it together
4. Dress the inside of the card with pink paper
5. There you go! Send them to everyone and make their valentine's day bright!

That's it! In so little time, I managed to make these adorable cards! However, instead of keeping them for my self, I sent them to a "Meals on Wheels" center, so that an older adult receives each! Valentine's Day Act Of Kindness alert! 

I hope you enjoyed making V-day cards with me!I hope you spent your Valentine's Day with the ones you truly love!
