Valentines
Wrapped with Love Valentine
Gift wrap your handmade valentine with paper strips and bows
and tag it with two hearts bearing your names.
Materials Required:
Cream colored card blank - 6" x 4"
Red craft paper
2 Red Heart cutouts/dies
Metallic Pen
Scissors, Glue and Pencil
Directions:
1. Cut long strips from red craft paper to make the horizontal
and vertical 'ribbons'.
2. Fold a small rectangle cutout of red craft paper accordion
style (like you would fold a Victorian fan) and glue it in the
center to make the bow. You can also use a small strip of paper
and tie the bow with it in the center and glue or tape it on the
backside.
3. For the curling ribbons, take two strips of red craft paper
and fold them over a pencil or other similar object. Hold the
strips curled over the pencil for some time and then loosen. You
will get beautifully curled strips of paper. Glue two curled
strips below the bow.
4. Glue two red colored heart cutouts and use metallic pen to
write your name on one and that of your Valentine on the other.
