Decorating Your Valentine While there are many ways to finish your card, we'll learn how to make a valentine using collage. With this art form, decorative papers and materials are combined by pasting or gluing. How to: Before you assemble the card, decorate the cast paper valentine with acrylics, glitter, or shapes cut or punched from paper. Cut and fold a scrap piece of card stock like a greeting card. Use a glue stick to fasten decorative paper such as a scrap of gift wrap, wallpaper, or hand marbled paper to the front.

To make the envelope, measure the length and width of the card, double the figure, add an inch each way, and cut a piece of construction paper or wallpaper this size. Tips and Tricks: After the cast paper dries, it will be fragile and tend to "flake" like a biscuit. Try your hand at "scherenschnitte" or paper cutting. See the marbling activity in Previous Activities for tips on marbling paper. Valentine's Day Clip Art - Free Valentine's Day Clip Art.
