A homemade card can show a little extra love and care on Valentine's Day. Homemade cards can include plays on language, like puns. You can attach small gifts, such as candy, to cards. Go for eye-catching decorations, like ribbon and fabric, to make your cards attractive.

Playing with Language and Puns

Stencil on puzzle pieces. Take two connecting puzzle pieces and lie them flat on card side-by-side. Trace around them using a pen or pencil. Color them in in Valentine's Day shades, like pink or red. Write on the cover or inside of the card something like, "We're a perfect fit!"

Adding Objects to Cards

1. Add a race car. This is a great idea for young children who play with toy cars. Tape a toy car to the front of a blank card. Then, write something like, "You Make My Heart Race!" inside the card.

You can add extra decoration by drawing tire marks jutting out the back of the car.

You can also glue or stencil on hearts, cupid bows, or other Valentine's Day shapes around the car.

2. Glue letter magnets on a card. Take some letter magnets, which you can buy at most craft stores and even some department stores. Glue them on the front of the card to spell out the name or initials of the card's recipient.

Choose colors related to Valentine's Day, like reds or pinks.

Add extra decorations, like hearts and cupid bows, surrounding the letters for extra decorations.

Using Eye-Catching Decorations

1. Make a pop-up card. Take a piece of construction paper and fold it in half. Draw a small heart on the fold, so the fold forms a line in the middle of the heart. Then, draw another larger heart around the first one. Cut around each heart, but do not cut them out of the card itself. On the sides of each heart, leave a small space uncut so the hearts stay attached to the card. Take a second piece of paper. Use a glue stick to glue a border around the sides of your first piece of paper. Attach your first piece of paper to your second piece of paper and fold your card in half. When you open it, both hearts should pop out slightly.

For an added touch, use paper decorated with hearts, bows and arrows, and other Valentine's Day patterns.

2. Paint on a card with watercolor. If you're adept at painting, get some watercolors. Do some free form painting on the front of a blank card. You can paint an abstract arrangement of Valentine's Day colors and then write a message over it when it dries. You can also paint Valentine's Day shapes, like hearts or bows and arrows. When you're done, let the card dry completely before adding any other decorations or words.

3. Make a jar of hearts. Cut heart shapes out of construction paper in colors like red and pink. Use a stencil to draw a jar shape upside down on the top corner of your card. Then, glue on your heart shapes. Have some of them inside the jar and some spilling out down through the card. Add letters as well, spelling messages like, "Love You."

4. Glue ribbon onto your cards. Ribbons can be a nice touch. You can add them as a finishing touch to any of the card designs listed here. For example, tie a ribbon into a bow and stick it at the bottom of a card if you feel it needs a little extra decoration.

Sample Valentine's Day Cards

Some stores sell a packet with everything you need to make your own Valentine's Day card. They often include red, white & pink paper for the card and stickers as well.

Make what you think the recipient will like and get creative!

To make cards for Valentine's Day, make a tic-tac-toe pattern, but instead of Xs use circles and hearts. Then, make a line of 3 hearts in a row with the message "You won my heart!" You can also glue the king or queen card from a deck of cards onto the front of a blank card and write "You're my queen" or "You're my king" on it. If you want to add candy to your card, glue some wrapped candies into the shape of a heart on the front of a card. To learn how to make a Valentine's Day pop-up card, keep reading!
