Quickly create unique Valentine cards is a super nice craft. We used the traditional Valentine colors, red and pink with a little white. But of course you can use any color combination for the cards. Before you start painting print your Valentine's wish in the cards or write your wishes later by hand.
How to make unique Valentine's Cards
Squeeze three colours paint into your tray.
Press it flat with the cling film.
Then the paint looks like this.
Roll through the paint and strike off.
Roll two stripes on the card.
Let the cards dry thoroughly.
Squeeze a little bit white paint in your tray.
Press the heart into the paint and stamp the excess paint off.
Then press the heart onto the card in one motion.
Make designs of your choice with the stamped hearts.
Let the hearts completely dry as well.
We like to decorate the envelopes as well, with a stamp.
Now your cards are ready, Happy Valentine's!
