Finished card. Use a cookie cutter to trace hearts onto different shades of sugar and tissue paper. Glue the hearts onto card stock to create a 3D flower effect for your sweet Valentine.

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 1

Supplies:

8.2 x 5.6 in light pink marbled cardstock
dark pink sugar paper
light pink sugar paper
light pink tissue paper
pink and blue square grid Washi tape
purple scrapbook letter stickers
14 small light purple-colored flat-sided rhinestone beads
five small clear flat-sided rhinestone beads
craft glue, pencil, ruler, and scissors
2 in heart-shaped cookie cutter.

Steps:

Score the 8.2 x 5.6 inch pink marbled card stock length-wise to create a card sized 5.6 x 4.1inches.
Use the heart-shaped cookie cutter. Trace four hearts onto the dark pink sugar paper, cut them out and with the fold at the left, glue them to the front of the card.

Adding heart shaped paper to card front to create flower.

Use the heart-shaped cookie cutter again to trace four hearts onto the light pink sugar paper and cut them out.

Use a pencil to roll the rounded points of each heart petal inwards to create a curved flower petal. Add a small drop of glue to each petal and glue it to the front of the card, so that the light pink petals will overlap with the darker petals.
Repeat steps 3-4 with the tissue paper.
Use eleven of the purple rhinestone beads and the five clear rhinestone beads to add "pollen" to the flower.

Glue the Washi tape in place at the top and bottom of the card.

Decorative borders added at top and bottom of card.

Use the scrapbook stickers to spell out "Be Mine" on the bottom piece of Washi tape, and add the finishing touches with the final three purple rhinestone beads.
