Valentine’s Day is on its way. I’ve been having fun making cards for my 8 grandchildren aged 4 – 9.
Photos of Love Rocks and sketch book pages were printed onto 160gm A4 white card.
I measured the card into 2″x 4″ sections
and cut with a craft knife
giving me enough pieces to make 5 cards.
Using double-sided sellotape in each corner
I fixed the two layers together.
Then added some heart stickers and made 5 cards
They still need a little more decorating to personalise them.
On the next batch I used a doodle page
Would you like to have a go?
Here is the link to the You Tube clip I learnt from,
and some PDFs for you to download, just click on the title.
If you download them I’d love to see what you make.

Really lovely. We have a reliable but sadly only a black and white printer.

I’m just wondering if you could print ‘tendrils’ as black and white and use that. You can always add colour with some doodles of your own or some stickers or washi tape. You have given me the idea to offer some back and white doodles as free downloads as well. Thanks Cathy. 😉
