Easy DIY Cricut Valentine’s Day Cards

January 15, 2020 by Paula W

Are you tired of buying the same old bulk Valentine’s Day cards? If you’re a crafter like me then you’re looking for a creative solution. I adore watercolor and it’s so popular right now. How would you like to make tons of custom easy watercolor cards in no time with your Cricut? Today we’re going to show you how!

You don’t have to be a master artist to make these Easy DIY Cricut Valentine’s Day Cards. Just a few supplies, some creativity, and you’ll be in business!

To finish off this project we used a fun “Happy Valentine’s Day” cut file that we got off our great membership website Makers Gonna Learn. Check it out along with 150+ other files for every occasion. You’ll love learning how to make these cards.

Easy DIY Cricut Valentine’s Day Cards

Easy DIY Watercolor Valentine's Day Cards

Cardstock
Watercolors
Paintbrushes
Large Plastic Bag
Black Marker (optional)
Cricut Maker
Weeding Tool Set
Pink Cricut Vinyl
Transfer paper

Lay the plastic bag down and start designing your watercolor pattern. Get creative. It might not look great on the bag but it will look great once you’re finished.
Once you’re satisfied with your color pattern, take a piece of cardstock and in one motion lay it face down onto your design while twisting the paper. This will mesh the colors and give the project that true watercolor feel.
When the paint has dried cut it into a folding card and cut out your design with your Cricut.
Add transfer paper to apply the vinyl easier onto the card.
Remove the transfer paper very gently so you don’t rip the cardstock. Once you’re finished simply write in the card and give them to all your friends and family.

Wasn’t this such a neat DIY? I love creating these cards. The fact that no two will ever look the same is such a unique thing. Step outside the card box and create fun and simple homemade cards for all your Valentines.

DIY Valentine’s Day Gifts with Your Cricut

January 10, 2020 by Paula W

Valentine’s Day will be here before you know it. I love Valentine’s Day because I have a great excuse (not that I really need one) to make some amazing DIY gifts for my loved ones. You don’t have to be a master crafter to make these fun DIY Valentine’s Day Gifts With Your Cricut. Your friends and family are sure to enjoy them.

We used fun Valentine’s Day cut files from our membership website Makers Gonna Learn on all of the projects today. It’s the ultimate crafting membership especially for people with Cricut machines! I hope you enjoy seeing all the different ways you can make Valentine’s gifts today.

DIY VALENTINE’S DAY GIFTS WITH YOUR CRICUT

DIY Soda Bottle Vase

This is definitely the cheapest gift idea we have in this post. Who doesn’t have an empty glass soda or wine bottle lying around? Most of you are probably thinking we painted the outside of this bottle white but you’d be wrong.

We poured white paint into the bottle and guided it around until it was fully covered. Then we turned the bottle over and let it drip and dry. After that, we just took our handy Cricut and cut our vinyl design out, weeded it, and applied it to the bottle with transfer tape- SO easy!

I think it turned out great and to top it off we added some beautiful silk flowers. You can’t go wrong with a simple DIY like this.

“You Are Loved” DIY Pallet Art

I know I talk all the time about how much I love plain wooden pallets and about how much they inspire me. This project is no different.

We took an unfinished pallet and painted and distressed it. Not only that but we also broke out our Premium Outdoor Vinyl and added this great design onto the pallet canvas we made. You can use iron-on on wood, but the wood has to be perfectly flat and this wasn’t.

So we opted for the stronger more durable Premium Outdoor Vinyl for this project. I love the way it looks and how simple it is. It looks great in my home displayed for Valentine’s Day!

DIY Valentine’s Day Photo Frame

This fun project is also simple but the big advantage here is that you have lots of room to personalize it. We bought this wooden frame at the craft store and decided to paint it purple.

Lucky for us this wood was actually very flat, so we were able to break out the EasyPress and use classic white iron-on for this project. We chose one of the many great Valentine’s Day files from Makers Gonna Learn.

After we adhered it and removed the transfer paper, we just added a photo of our furry friend and called it a day. You can choose your own color of frame, color of iron-on, and what photo you use. We loved making this project and I’m sure you will too.

I hope you got inspired to make some great DIY Valentine’s Day Gifts this year. You don’t have to break the bank on gifts. Plus, making your own is so much more fun.

Don’t forget to check out our membership website. We have over 1000 cut files for every occasion in your life.
