In my believe, it is always better to make cards and gifts by yourself - in that way you show people you do care about them - in the hectic and busy era we live, time is the most precious to give. This card is easy to make, I like to use material I can find at home.
Read this simple tutorial how to make Valentine sugar card.
Material:
piece of cardboard
brown sugar
white glue
piece of foil for stencil (or cardboard, if you can't find piece of foil at home)
scissors, decorative ribbon, puncher, candies
Make stencil - draw hart on foil and cut it.
Cut the card from cardboard.
Put the stencil on the card where you want it, glue the shape with white glue, a little bit thicker.
Leave it a minute to dry and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Leave it about ten minutes to dry, carefuly remove the stencil and slowly shake off the excess.
If necessary, to better fix the sugar you can gently spray the sugar shape with glue spray (if you have it) or hair spray - try aside on a test stencil first.
Design a ribbon shape with your text - I made it using Microsoft Word (Insert tab -> Shapes) and just printed it on the plain paper.
Print ribbon shape, cut it and glue it on the card. Round the card corners if you like.
Punch two holes and slip the ribbon, tie candies. Card is ready!
Thank for your nice words, it's great how internet connect people.
