Hi, Renee here to share a tutorial on how I put together some fun Valentine’s Day cards using the adorable Be Mine collection. There is so much cuteness and love in this collection that is perfect for any project. I made these Valentine’s Day cards to send out to family members.
I started with the base for my cards. I trimmed different colored cardstocks down to 10″ x 7″ and folded them in half to make 5″ x 7″ cards (A7 cards).
Here’s the first card…
…and here are the items I used to make this card.
I trimmed the Bouquet pattern paper to 4¾” x 6¾” and adhered it to my card. I trimmed a paper from the 6″ x 6″ Paper Pad to 2½” x 4¾” and added Glitter Tape along the top of it before I adhered it to my card.
I adhered a few “flower” Die-Cut Shapes, a couple of “bumble bee” Stickers, and a trimmed “Happy Valentine’s Day” Minc Tag with red foil. I also added hand-stitched buzzing bee lines to finish off my card (seen in the final photo of the card above).
Here’s the next card…
…and here are the items I used to make this card.
I trimmed the XOXO pattern paper to 4 7/8″ x 6 7/8″ and adhered it to my card. I trimmed the Be Mine pattern paper to 4 3/8″ x 6 3/8″ and added machine stitching. I also added some pretty gold splatters.
I adhered an adorable “bear” Layered Sticker, a “XOXO” Sticker, and some Puffy Heart Stickers to finish off my card.
Here’s the last card…
…and here are the items I used to make this card.
I trimmed the Scattered Love pattern paper to 4¾” x 6 7/8″. I trimmed the Sprinkles pattern paper to 3½” x 6 7/8″ and adhered it to the Scattered Love pattern paper. I added some Baker’s Twine before I adhered the paper layers to my card.
I adhered a “I’m donuts about you” Die-Cut Shape and some “donut” Stickers to finish off my card.
Hope you enjoyed these cards! Instead of making Valentine’s Day cards for the teachers this year, I decided to make simple Valentine’s Day Treat Boxes. You can visit my blog to see how they turned out.
Have a hug-filled, love-filled, and very Happy Valentine’s Day, Everyone!
