How Do You Make Valentine Cards Out Of Doilies?

Go retro by making your own Valentine cards out of doilies this year. Making Valentine cards shows loved ones you care enough to take time to create a custom gift for them.

Fold and cut the pink piece of construction paper in half. Set aside one half of the paper before folding the remaining piece in half. Use the decorative scissors to cut around the edges of the folded paper; the folded paper is the body of your card.

Trace the Cupid stencil on black paper, the small heart stencil on white paper and the big heart stencil on red paper; cut them all out. You will need six white and six red hearts. Glue the doily to the front, center of the card.

Put glue on the Cupid cutout and stick it on top of the doily. Glue the smaller hearts on the larger hearts. Attach the hearts to the top and bottom borders ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
