LEARN TO MAKE EASY AND ADORABLE CARDS FOR YOUR VALENTINES USING YOUR CRICUT CUTTING MACHINE
Valentine’s Day is coming up fast! I wanted to share with you this crazy easy yet adorable Be Mine Valentine’s card!
Now, this quick cut card is only two layers and doesn’t involve a pen or scoring wheel/stylus. Of course, I included an envelope file for you to use which will need to be scored so keep that in mind!
Also, if you don’t have a cutting machine, you can still make this card! I have added a PDF version that you can just print off on your home printer!
In this tutorial, I’ll give you my step by step instructions and tell you what materials I think work best when making this project.
You can download the SVG file for this project at the bottom of this post.

Attach your cardstock to the Cricut StandardGrip Mat.
STEP 4 - LOADING YOUR MATS AND CUTTING YOUR MATERIALS
To load the mat into the machine, press the double arrows button. Do make sure that the mat is positioned under the mat guides.

Repeat Step 4 until all layers have been cut.
STEP 5 - ASSEMBLE YOUR CARD
Now that all layers have been cut, you can assemble this Valentine's Day card.
Flip the top layer (in my case, the red layer) over and add glue or adhesive to the back.
Position the layer over the back card layer (pink) and adhere. Make sure to line up the edges.
Press with your hand to ensure good contact!
Your card is ready to personalize!
I have included a seperate envelope file in the download. You can make that to finish off this card!
I know your Valentine will love this one! You could even reduce the size of these and make them for your kids’ Valentine’s Day party – if they are having one this year!
