If you can get your hands on some fancy colored paper, this simple layout can make a really nice card. I had a sample pad of rice paper from an old scrapbook collection that worked well.
1. I used a white card stock paper that was letter size, and folded it 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 great so there are no wrinkles from wet glue.
2. With the scraps remaining, I 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. They are glued in place when they are finished. That’s it – there’s nothing quite like a homemade Valentine card.
