Here’s a fun and simple Valentine’s card you can make in minutes using coordinating products that do all the heavy lifting. Whether you’re crafting for kids, friends, coworkers, or the one you love, this design is proof that a simple Valentine can still feel thoughtful, handmade, and heartfelt.
Why I Love This Simple Valentine Design
Some of the best cards start with the basics. This simple Valentine uses clean layering, a touch of texture, and—of course—my favorite Stampin’ Up! coordination to make everything look put together with almost no effort. If you don’t feel like overthinking a project or digging through your whole craft room, this is the perfect design to try.
What Makes This Card Beginner-Friendly Friendly
This simple Valentine is a great choice for:
• New stampers getting started
• Anyone in a time crunch
• Crafters who love clean and classic designs
• Makers who want to use supplies they already own
The measurements and card recipe come together quickly, and you can swap almost any patterned paper or sentiment to make this same layout work for birthdays, thank-you cards, or everyday notes.
A Peek at the Supplies I Used
Here’s the supply mix for my version:
• Cardstock in coordinating colors
• Embossing folder for texture
• Designer Series Paper
• Sentiment stamp
• Punch for the greeting layer
• Ribbon or embellishment to finish
I chose red, white, and playful heart accents, but you can easily adjust the palette to fit your style.
