DIY valentines: unusual ideas, templates and schemes. DIY paper valentines

Hello friends!

New Year and Christmas holidays are over. And before we had time to rest, a new holiday is just around the corner - Valentine's Day. It is celebrated on February 14 all over the world.

And although this day is not a day off at work, it can be celebrated at home after work.

There are several legends and myths about the origin of this holiday. The most common of them is about the holy Martyr Valentine, who lived in Rome in the third century. Then the Roman emperor Claudius II forbade men to marry so that they would not be burdened by their family and fight better. But the priest Valentine took pity on the unfortunate lovers and secretly married everyone who came to him for help.

The emperor found out about this and put Valentine in prison. He was sentenced to death on 14 February. In prison, he met the jailer's daughter, Julia. Priest Valentin fell in love with the girl and before his death wrote her a declaration of love on paper - a valentine. The girl read it after the death of the priest.

Valentine's card - in most cases, these are cards in red and pink colors and in the form of hearts, which symbolize passionate feelings, a declaration of love or a romantic greeting.

Whether the beautiful legend is true or not, now it is impossible to find out. But it is known that the first valentines appeared in England in the 18th century and the holiday was fixed as Valentine's Day.

In Russia, this secular holiday arose in the 90s of the last century. On this day, couples in love arrange romantic evenings, give each other gifts that express love and tender feelings.

Today, almost every store sells goods that symbolize tender addictions and love in the form of beautiful hearts: mugs, postcards, sweets. But there is nothing better than giving your loved one a handmade card or heart.

DIY paper valentines

The easiest way to make hearts is with paper or cardboard. Such materials are always in the house, and even a child can handle the work.

Option number 1. Hearts in a bank

To do this, cut out small heart-shaped shapes from colored paper. We write a confession on each piece of paper and fold them in half so that the text is inside. We take a transparent, clean and dry jar, put the postcards there and close the lid. The lid of the jar can be decorated with a bright ribbon.

Option number 2. From colored cardboard

This is one of the most simple ways make a present for Valentine's Day - cut out such cute figures and hang them around the house.

Option number 3. Boxes

Any small gift can be packed in one of these funny boxes. It is easy to do this according to the scheme. It is enough to print on a printer and transfer to thick cardboard. Then cut and fold around the edges to form a box.

Option number 4. Volume postcards

A beautifully made postcard will always bring joy to your loved one. She will help to make a confession of love and tender feelings. By the way, you can express your feelings in poetry or song.

And below are templates for the background of the postcards. You just need to print them on a color printer and make an interesting postcard.

A beautiful heart made of chocolate.

Valentine card made of ice

Such congratulations can definitely surprise anyone. Although the present does not last long, it will bring great joy and help to express your love.

To make it, we take any shape in the shape of a heart. We fill it with dry or fresh flowers, plants, fill it with water and put it in the freezer for freezing.

At the appointed time, we take it out, take it out of the form and hand it over to our dearest half. Well, we rejoice together with her an unusual gift.

Valentines from scrap materials

We make simple hearts with our own hands from felt. To do this, cut out 2 identical figures from felt and sew them on a sewing machine. We put a synthetic winterizer inside so that the product is voluminous.

Here the item is trimmed with floss threads.

You can sew an ordinary heart and sew it beautifully with beads or beads. Such valentines are quite useful as key rings and they will always remind of the donor's love.

And here is an interesting option from felt and beads on sticks. Very good to use as bookmarks for books. Or just put it in a vase for decoration on your desktop.

And here we cut a heart out of cardboard and wrap it along the contour with mouline threads or woolen red or pink threads. This beautiful, cozy and soft product can be hung in any prominent place. It looks very good if you make and hang 2 or 3 of these figures together.

Live valentine of flowers

Here, too, everything is simple. We cut out a figurine from thick cardboard and glue live flowers (these can be small roses) on the cardboard very tightly to each other.

Here a glue gun will come to your aid. And you will not stain your pens and prepare a gift.

Valentines made of wood

Original wooden hearts smell very tasty with fresh wood. These templates can be purchased at almost any craft or hobby store, and then painted in colors. Or you may not paint, but simply write a declaration of love by hand and hang it on a chain. Will look like an eco-friendly keychain.

All additional materials: hook, carnation, lock and chain are also sold in handicraft shops.

Plywood hearts.

And such a little thing can be made from wine bottle corks or from the same sawn tree branches.

It is enough to glue them to each other. Then you can use it as a hot stand or as an interior decoration.

Soap Valentines

It is not difficult to buy ready-made kits for making soap at home. And also suitable for the occasion of the shape of hearts.

A bit of work and a great present that smells good and looks good, ready. He will definitely bring a lot of joy and pleasure.

Natural herbal soap also rejuvenates.

Finally, another interesting idea - cute cards for Valentine's Day from simple matchboxes.

Happy viewing!

Do you want to make a valentine with your own hands? We will show you how, and also offer some nice postcards that can be printed - if you have a color printer why not use it.

DIY valentines: volumetric cards

First, we will show you how to make voluminous valentine cards (they are also called kirigami or pop-up - "unexpectedly appearing"). The principle is simple: you need heavy paper or cardboard, a pattern and a cutter. Print or redraw the pattern, make the necessary cuts, and then gently fold the paper along the dotted or red lines.

It is best to stick such a voluminous postcard on a thick sheet of contrasting color - the recognition will be an even more convincing surprise.


A gamer, digital designer and any other guy who is familiar with computer games and pixel art (that is, any guy under 70 years old) will definitely be happy with such a Valentine's Day card.

Girls also love voluminous postcards because they appreciate surprises.



Valentines made of paperdo it yourself

Let's start with simple valentines. Even a first-grader can make this adorable elephant out of paper. The secret of the postcard is contrasting colors and a heart as an elephant's ear. If you want to be original - make the Valentine's card with an elephant huge. Make it as big as your feelings.


For the next DIY valentines, also made of paper, you will need nail scissors (or a cutter) and a lot of patience. Maybe as big as the elephant on the valentine above. But patience is an important virtue in a relationship, so take the chance to demonstrate it.


This valentine card with kissing doves is a bit like a snowflake and is just as simple: fold a piece of paper with a pattern in half and cut out. When finished, glue the result to a piece of cardboard in a contrasting color.


By the way, such handmade valentines, if placed in frames, will be an excellent decoration for the bedroom. You can make the creation of such cards a tradition - then they will delight you for many years, showing how many years you have been together. And you will never have a problem coming up with a gift.



If your significant other loves animals, cut out a card with fluffy squirrels for Valentine's Day. By the way, the larger the template, the easier it is to cut.



Isn't it a feat in the name of love?

If you are short on time, but have a printer at hand, use it. We have selected several original valentines that you can print, sign and give.

Ideally! It takes a couple of minutes to make such a card, but the recipient will have the feeling that it was created especially for him.

Hi everyone! I want to remind everyone that soon we will celebrate the next holiday called Valentine's Day, which is celebrated every year at the same time on February 14th. What do you think, in most cases, is given on this day? Of course, small and cool paper valentines that resemble postcards, but only they are made in the form of hearts and decorated with love and care.

Nowadays, you can safely go to the store and buy such charm, but still there is nothing more beautiful to make such original pictures and give to your loved ones.

Do you know where this holiday came to us, write your stories below under this note? I think so, so I will not dwell on this issue, but I will immediately start with the most important and basic, I will teach you and show you in stages various ideas for Valentine's Day crafts, so let's get started.

Of course, you can knit such creations, or even sew, I saw recently how they made a heart from beads and even from felt. By the way, for those who are fond of felt toys, I suggest looking into this

It's no secret to anyone that even a child can make paper products, because such material is in every home, the main thing in this matter is to competently approach and do everything as the author recommends. Therefore, see this step-by-step instruction and repeat, the result will be simply stunning and very beautiful.

I propose to make the first option for two halves at once, for example, a husband and wife, and hang such a decoration over the bed.

We need:

  • paper
  • paints
  • ribbon
  • scissors

Stages of work:

1. As you can see, everything is quite easy and quick, dip your fingers in paint, that is, apply it to the surface of your palms, and then make a print that will resemble a heart symbol.

2. Cut with decorative scissors and thread the ribbon.


The next way to make a valentine from what you have, so to speak from scrap materials, is to take cardboard, preferably pink or red, and plus colored paper. You will also need glue, pencil and scissors.

We need:

  • colored red cardboard - 1 sheet
  • sheet of pink colored paper - 1 pc.
  • pencil
  • scissors

Stages of work:

1. Everything is very simple, fold a sheet of cardboard in half and cut out a heart, then you have to make thin stripes out of pink colored paper, which you cut as if you are making grass or something like that, twist each such strip on a pencil.


2. Glue the flowers on the layout and you can also decorate with sparkles and something else to your taste. It turns out a slightly voluminous and at the same time elegant craft, which you can happily present to your mom, sister and tell how you love them.


And a similar idea, which also won me over, also uses interweaving of paper strips:


But that's not all, if you turn on your imagination, then you yourself can come up with your own patterns, because there is nothing difficult here, see what can happen. Well, if you think you can't do it, then contact me and I will send you stencils, according to which you can make these adorable creations.


I really liked these views, there are stencils in an enlarged form. By the way, such crafts are called intertwined paper hearts.


The simplest thing is that you can do this and decorate this ordinary heart with any jewelry, letters, rhinestones, etc.


Master class of paper valentines for children

Undoubtedly, schools now still have such a tradition of putting mailboxes and throwing anonymous wishes there, which everyone then receives. This is so cool and tempting that it makes this holiday unique for everyone.

Therefore, most schoolchildren, and just preschool children, love to create great postcards, and then give them to all those whom they love and adore.

Therefore, if you have children, then you can easily make such a gift with them.

For children of kindergarten and at home, by the way, you can use this type of work as a group to make such a drawing, crumple a heart shape from ordinary toilet paper jugs, and then dip it in paint and fill in the entire Whatman paper. Even a 2-3 year old child can cope with this task.


And if you still haven't learned how to draw a heart, then you can use this stencil.


After all, children can simply decorate it with felt-tip pens or pencils and draw their own patterns, or use nothing else. Drawing antistress, or as it is called coloring.


You can find various ideas if you want a bunch of such anti-stress, of course, this work will be more addressed to high school students and schoolchildren. I have several coloring pages in my piggy bank, who are interested, write.


Or make a bookmark for this topic, cut out the hearts out of paper yourself, and the child should glue them with an example, but something like that.

You can also make origami, because such an activity will certainly delight kids. Make a boat with them, and instead of a sail, a symbol of lovers on a stick.



Original card Heart for February 14 with a diagram

While preparing for this post, I found several ways to surprise and surprise your loved one beautifully and unexpectedly. Indeed, on this day you really want something that will make your head spin. For example, if your betrothed will give you a ring, but not just like that, but in a purse. It will look dignified and romantic at the same time.

You will need to cut out two of these shapes from paper using ordinary sharp scissors:


And then connect them together, but in advance you will need to fold them in half, where you see symmetry, make a small incision where the antennae of the butterfly are.


It will look something like this:


Now it remains to glue the ribbon or make it out of paper and put the cherished gift with wishes or a bill.


It is more difficult to offer such a craft, for those who are familiar with the technique of cutting out stencils, it will be easy for that, this is a method of sticking out with a special knife, as the people say vytynanka. You can get the stencil itself for free, if you write a comment below, I will definitely send it to you.


Also, in a hurry, you can build such a masterpiece using your palms. I think that the process of making such a product is already clear.



Looks gentle and of course with love. The beloved will definitely be delighted and smile and give you a kiss.


In America and other countries, they very often give their loved ones pictures related to this topic, you can use newspaper publications, you do not need to be an artist to create such a work, see for yourself.


Well, one more type is vytynanka, they are also appropriate to apply here. And I will write about them below. To be honest, such a souvenir can be attributed to the competition in kindergarten or school.


Here is its template, cut out with a cutter or a special sharp knife.


We make voluminous valentines at home

As for such large and seemingly voluminous figures for this holiday, I propose to first go the easiest way and make a heart outline out of cardboard, and then with the help of woolen threads, you can take different colors, or you can take a single color. Tie, that is, wrap, as shown in this photo.


In the first version, we made flowers and glued them to the workpiece, you can also do it in this case.


You can also easily and quickly cut out according to such a ready-made sample, and then glue the sides, the box.

And then decorate it with all sorts of decorations, such as scrapbooking kits. I found a similar option in this video, I share with you:

While I was writing this note, one idea came to my mind, and it came to me for a reason, my eldest son was sitting and collecting a mosaic from puzzles, so that's what I came up with. How did you see it?

Quilling heart

Do you know what this unique and at first glance interesting word means, quilling? In fact, a technique that makes it very funny to fold paper into little funny things. I think all those who love creativity and crafts are familiar with this type of work, or have you ever seen such cute souvenirs.

If you know how to use and make such valentines, please share your work with us, I can only offer you such ideas that I liked myself.


I suggest you make a photo frame and something else, take a look and decide for yourself what is closer to your soul.

Or make such a small but nice thing out of strips:

We need:


Stages of work:

Take a ready-made heart template or make it by hand using a compass, or something round. Then attach the stencil to thick cardboard and cut out the blank. Next, attach the blank to colored paper and make some more stock, as shown in the figure.


Paste this green cover. Then cut a heart out of red colored paper and glue it on the back of the blank. On this side, you can write a love note or a poem.

After that, make figures for quilling, wind strips of paper on a pencil, use a special ruler and a toothpick.


When the washer works, leave it in the circle of the same engineering ruler.

Take your love photo and trace it to the desired shape, and then glue it onto double-sided tape or tape.

Now it remains to glue all the elements. And this is how wonderful and magical it looks.


And you can also build such a red pendant, a symbol of love.


Card with corrugated paper roses

Well, now I propose another fairly common version of roses, which are easy to twist, if you take the desired type of paper, we are talking about corrugation.

There is also a great idea for a very large valentine, which is made in the style of a toppiar, looks great, at first glance you might think that such a charming invention is beyond your power, but in fact, believe me, your eyes are afraid, but your hands do.

Now you will see the necessary basics and based on this information you can easily build such a thing. Moreover, after all, it can be presented not only for Valentine's Day, but also for March 8 or Birthday.

Stages of work:

1. Take regular polystyrene and cut out the symbol of love from it, the thickness should be about 3 cm.

2. Next, take a stick or pencil, for this purpose, barbecue sticks are very suitable and stick it into the heart. Hide the stick using a decorative ribbon. Then insert the stick into the jar, it also needs to be decorated, wrap the dishes with cloth or paper, in general, with improvised means, you can even use plasticine.


To prevent the stick from falling in the pot, fill everything with plaster.

3. Now prepare the following materials for work, this is glue, it is better to take something like liquid nails, it is more convenient for them to work. Then you will need corrugated or crepe paper and a core from a gel pen.

4. Now make the facing. At first glance, the word is not easy, but there is nothing difficult.


5. Stick the rod into the middle of the rectangle (cut the paper into small pieces of equal size) and then crumple.


6. Now aim straight for the heart, glue the blank to the foam.


Remember, it is best to apply the glue to the paper itself.


Using this method of trimming, you can also make such a fluffy and voluminous postcard on cardboard.


Pictures and templates for printing

So we got to the very last option, it will be unexpected, but also pleasant at the same time. In one magazine I saw such a cool cool novelty for the interior, decor in the house.

I remember that when the new year came, many of you asked me to send them templates on the window, so why not implement it here too, decorate the window by February 14 with the necessary symbols, it can be hearts, angels, pigeons, etc. How are you look at this, see how you can do it in an original way.



I really like this incarnation, and write your suggestions and reviews))).


And I honestly really liked these images of a girl and a boy. And you? There is also a sketch of a cupid and a fairy, as in the photo on the window. There is in my piggy bank a boy and a girl kissing in the heart and much more.


Therefore, if you also want to decorate your apartment with your children, then you can request all the schemes and templates for free, I, as always, will send it to everyone by e-mail.

Well, and for those who did not like such a creation, I give you small blanks, which you can also print on a printer and present to your beloved family and friends.












Here's a selection, I hope my findings will be useful to someone. Have a good day, good mood and positive! While!

Best regards, Ekaterina Mantsurova

However, in the modern world, there is clearly a tendency to give valentines to mothers and fathers, and grandmothers and grandfathers, girlfriends and friends. And that's not bad! Everyone you love needs to talk about your feelings!) That is why "Cross" has collected in its new article ideas and master classes on creating beautiful, original, funny, and most importantly - simple valentines that even children can make!

Valentine's cards by children's hands

Tools, postcard templates

Valentine templates for kids should be as simple as possible. In addition, it should be interesting for children to make valentines out of paper with their OWN hands, which means that parents need to prepare such materials that will "catch" the child's attention:

  • colored paper (or scrapbooking paper)
  • paints (acrylic or finger) or gouache
  • glue stick
  • bright buttons (eyes with moving pupils)
  • felt-tip pens
  • cardboard or ready-made blanks for a postcard

A few words about what postcards can be. Looking at the templates below, you see that a sheet of cardboard or can be folded in different ways and depending on this, the card will turn out to be 4, 6, 8 or even 12 pages!

Valentines from children 0-1 years old

Quite still, crumbs can literally leave their mark, and mom will add and finish the rest! Dad, as well as grandparents will be moved by such delight)

But such an original valentine can be made if you circle the baby's palms! On the front of your palms, write "I love you!" And between the two cut-out palms, glue a long paper accordion with the inscription "Woooooot soooo siiiilo !!!"

Valentines for children 2-4 years old

Older kids will be able to make valentine cards using any of these simple templates, but parents will still need to be there and help a little, for example, cut small rectangles out of paper and fold them in half, thus preparing the basis for future cards.

Take one such blank card, put a paper heart template on the front side. Now, just give your child a pencil that has an eraser on the back. Let him dip the eraser in paint or gouache and stamp circles around the heart template! Thus, as a result, the outline of the heart will be drawn on the card, inside which you can write the cherished words "I love you!"

And here is an example of a postcard completely painted over with bright colors - this is the scope for a child's creativity! After the paint has dried, glue a white heart cut out of paper with the baby and sign the valentines.

Idea from the site http://www.nestofposies-blog.com/2013/02/watercolor-valentines/

Or maybe your child likes to glue colored strips of paper more? Then take note of this idea: again fold the rectangular sheet of paper in half, cut a large heart on the front side. Circle the outline of the heart with a pencil, open the card and show the child where to glue the strips of paper. The last step is to glue the 2 pieces of the postcard together to hide the loose ends of the strips.

Original valentines by girls hands

Girls can spend more time creating a valentine, because it's done! Therefore, there will be more complicated options (although no one forbids it earlier))

So, the task is as follows: a valentine (be it a picture, a postcard or something else) should not be cute, but stylish, so that the guy wants to keep it.

Better yet, if the valentine becomes an adornment of his interior. Do you think a loved one will appreciate such a picture?)

Cut out a heart in the physical map (page from the atlas), glue a shelf of paper with the cherished inscription on top. Place in a frame.

It is very symbolic to cut out those places on the map where you have already been or would like to visit together! Another idea using a card as the basis for a valentine:

Idea from the site http://lilbit.michelevenlee.com/diy/diy-valentines-day-gift/

Continuing the theme of interior paintings, we offer you the following options:



Don't want to give a painting, but like the idea of \u200b\u200busing your photos with him? I think a set of 4 cubes with letters L O V E and your photos is an interesting idea!

By the way, wooden cubes are sold in shops with handicraft goods. If you are not sure that you can decorate the cubes yourself, then order the work from a professional.

And on your own you can make an "accordion" with your funny, passionate, touching, romantic, stylish, incredibly beautiful and so different photos!

Buy first or to know for sure the size of your prints!

And, of course, you can "amuse the vanity" of your boyfriend by presenting him with a postcard with the inscription "You are the king of my heart!"

If you are planning on hanging out together, then here's a great idea for how to have fun. Buy the well-known game "Jenga", write something romantic on each wooden block or ... come up with some tasks. Take turns getting the blocks from the tower and complete tasks. The outcome of the whole game depends on how creative you are when you come up with tasks and inscriptions!)

Valentine cards for husband or wife

In a couple that have been together for a long time, more serious gifts are often given than just paper valentines. But nevertheless, in addition to the main gift, it is always nice to receive a postcard with a declaration of love!




What about puzzles? After all, if you are together, then your puzzle has long and correctly formed! on "Cross" will not advise bad! :)
