Ah, the Valentine’s Day card. The prime mover of all cutesy Valentine greetings, with little hearts and cupids. Countless cards have been made and sold (we’re looking at you, Hallmark) and everyone always tries to get the best one they can find. Quirky, funny, sentimental, but always adorable.
There’s nothing quite like making one yourself, though – and no, we’re not talking about the old macaroon and crayon scribbles. There’s a way to make the bae feel even more loved by putting in a little extra effort in the card. Want to give your mushy Valentineโs card an upgrade? Here are quick easy steps!

Paper, Cutter,ย Glue,ย Pencil, Ruler
Instructions:
Step 1: Cut sheets of paper into 1cm strips
Step 2: Use a pencil or pen to roll the stripsย
