DIY Valentine’s Day Card Tutorial:
Step 1. Prep the card base.
I started this DIY Valentine’s Day card by trimming a sheet of gray cardstock to be 5.5 x 8.5 and scoring it down the middle to make an A2 sized card base. Then I grabbed my Tie Dye patterned cardstock and trimmed it to be about 4 x 5 inches in size to create the card back. I then adhered it to the card base using some Scrapbook Adhesives mounting squares.
Step 2. Cut out the hanging garden design.
Once the card base was prepped, I placed the Altenew hanging garden die on some silver glitter cardstock and ran it through my Sizzix BIGkick machine a few times to cut it out. Some of the sections of the die didn’t fully cut, so I did have to work it a bit with my tweezers and my craft knife, but I really love how the leaves look here.
Step 3. Add the Sentiment.
Lastly, I created the sentiment by placing the “with all of my love” stamp from the Altenew Sentiment Strips 2 stamp set. I used black soot distress oxide ink from Ranger to stamp the words down, then I covered the sentiment with embossing powder. Once I had melted the powder to set it in place, I trimmed the sentiment down to size and adhered it on this Valentine’s Day card to finish it off!
