This is a very quick and easy Valentine's Day card
you can get ready in no time at all.
- Cut a piece of cardstock (I used a piece of pink Bazzill) into a standard size (8.5" x 5.5")
- Score on the 8.5" side at 4.25" and fold in half on the score mark
- Cut a piece of grey cardstock 5.25" x 4". Fray ends of the grey cardstock with a Tonic edge distresser or the edge of a scissors.
- Cut a piece of Gypsy Moments paper: I cut from the left edge and a piece that measured 5" tall x 3.75" wide. Ink the white edges and set aside.
- Using small precision scissors and the rest of the flowers on the paper shown above, fussy cut individual flowers.
- You will have a small piece of decorative paper left. Cut a piece of the stripe side in a square about 2" x 2".
- Take the panel with the flowers on it and fold the right side in 2 directions: one small horizontal fold and one small vertical fold. Roll those edges back to create a window of sorts. (Thanks Laura Denison for this trick!)
- Place the 2" stripe square behind the window and then glue the panel down to the grey cardstock. The grey cardstock can then be adhered to the pink card front.
- Add a heart charm in the center of the window if desired.
- Using the fussy cut flowers from Step 5 and Crafty Foam Tape, adhere the flowers to the front of the card, overlapping onto the decorative paper.
- Add glitter where desired.
12. Using a 2nd piece from Gypsy Moments, decorate the inside of your card before signing or adding a gift card. Add pearls to the front of the card (or I use Viva's Pearl Pens. They dry in under a minute!)
Love the vintage look of these papers!
And in less than 30 minutes, you can have a card ready to go on Valentine's Day.
