Valentine Paper Craft Ideas With Printable Paper

Valentine’s Day is made for paper: love notes, cards, classroom valentines, little envelopes and albums of the year together. Printable Valentine paper lets you make a whole matching set, from the card to the envelope liner, from one pack. Here are projects for partners, friends and classrooms.

Valentine styles

• Romantic and vintage: roses and berries in mauve and plum. Try Mauve Berry Rose or Blushing Cocoa Bloom.
• Love letters: envelopes, stamps and postmarks. Try Slate Pink Envelope.
• Playful: arrows, hearts and XOs. Try Cupid Arrow Lane or Aubergine Daisy Heart.
• Folk and birds: lovebirds and folk hearts. Try Plum Taupe Bird.

1. Love notes and a jar of reasons

Print a pattern on text-weight paper, cut it into 2 x 3 in slips, write one reason or memory on each, roll them up and fill a jar. Label the jar with a round printed tag. It is one of the simplest and most-loved Valentine gifts.

2. Cards with matching envelopes

Make a card with a printed panel and line the envelope with a coordinating paper. Window cards with a heart cut-out showing a pattern behind are especially pretty. Sizes and techniques are in our card guide.

3. Classroom valentines

For a class of 25, print A2-size panels four to a Letter sheet: seven sheets and you are done. Fold them over a lollipop stick or tape them to a small treat. Bright, playful patterns read best at a distance. Using our papers for valentines your family gives out is personal use.

4. Mini envelopes and pockets

Fold tiny envelopes from offcuts for notes, photos or gift cards. Instructions in tags, envelopes and bookmarks.

5. Heart garland

Cut hearts in two or three sizes from different papers in the same pack, glue them back to back over a string, and hang them across a mantel or window. A cutting machine makes it fast, see the Cricut guide.

6. An anniversary or “our year” album

A small 6 x 6 album with one photo and one memory per page makes a meaningful gift. Use the 6 x 6 mini PDF for backgrounds and the Letter PDF for mats and journaling cards.

7. Treat packaging

Wrap chocolate bars in printed paper bands, make small pillow boxes for truffles, or add printed toppers to cookie bags. See DIY gift wrap.

Wedding and bridal use

Romantic Valentine papers also suit bridal showers, wedding favors and engagement albums. If you need a palette that matches the wedding colors exactly, our studio offers custom recolors.
