A Valentine card is a card with a wish or declaration of love, which is the main attribute of a holiday like Valentine's Day. Making a valentine with your own hands at home is not difficult at all, it requires very little free time and suitable materials.
How to make a Valentine card out of paper
You will need:
- white paper;
- paper red:
- scissors;
- glue;
- sequins;
- markers.
The first step is to bend the white paper in half, draw a beautiful heart-shaped shape on it and cut it out. It is necessary to draw and cut the heart so that one of the sides is on the fold.
Next, you need to cut out three identical hearts from red paper, the dimensions of which are half the size of the previously cut figure. On each red heart, write wishes with felt-tip pens, then bend the figures in half, glue them to each other so that you get an "accordion".
Now you need to glue the resulting "accordion" into the inner part of the white heart. Moreover, this must be done so that one part of the "accordion" is glued to one part of the heart, and the second - to the other. As a result, you should get a "valentine", when you open it, bright red hearts with wishes appeared in front of your eyes.
The last stage is the design of the outer part of the postcard. To do this, you need to apply glue along the edge of the "valentine" and glue the sequins in the form of a border.
