Today, we have this homemade Valentine card tutorial that is super easy and yet makes a lovely gift idea for a beloved. Don’t spend on those expensive cards because you can make one on your own. Read on.

What you need:

  1. 9″ x 12″ watercolor paper
  2. Washable watercolour
  3. Brush
  4. Black pen
  5. Bone folder
  6. Colored paper

Fold the 9” x 12” watercolor paper into half. Use the bone folder to neatly fold the paper and to avoid untidy cracks.

Step 1: Fold the watercolor paper into half.

Get one colored paper, draw a small heart and cut it out. Place it in front of the card and use pencil to trace around it. Continue tracing more hearts leaving enough space between them.

Step 2: Trace hearts in front of the card.

Get the watercolor ready. Choose the colors you want. To get that perfect design, drop some water into the heart before placing the colors. Before bringing the colors, make sure the entire heart is saturated. If so, add the colors. Red and yellow are highly recommended for this love season. If the colors are set, bring an edge to the design by mixing a really water-down gray and paint it under the hearts creating shadows.

Step 3: Color the hearts with watercolor.

Let the watercolor dry up. Once dry, get a black pen and add sayings like “I love you” inside a heart.
