This morning we had so much fun making these simple Valentine pop up cards.
1. Start with a strip of paper 11" x 4."
2. Fold the paper in half horizontally and cut out half a heart shape along the fold.
3. Fold the open ends in toward the center fold.
4. Glue the left and right end flaps inside the card, so that the heart protrudes forward when the card is folded close.
5. Glue a smaller heart to the back of the card, so that it shows through the heart window.
Isn't that darling?
Will you be our Valentine? xoxo

Karyn,
Thanks for your sweet comment.
Some ideas float around in my head from when I was a kid or from teaching, others I find online or in a pile of craft books I have. I think about craft ideas a lot throughout the day!
Love,

I love Valentine's Day!
Thanks so much for this great little tutorial - my sister got engaged yesterday, and I was able to "whip up" a very cool card to congratulate her, all thanks to you.
