"52 Reasons I Love You" DIY Valentine

“52 Reasons I Love You Card Tutorial” 


This is a really cute Valentine's Day DIY idea! 

Thanks Papervine

  • Find some playing cards! You can use an old deck from home or try the dollar store.
  • Scuff them up with some sandpaper to give them a used feel as well as a used look
  • Create a template with one of the spare cards
  • Punch two holes in each cards using the template as a guide
  • Create your reasons labels to attach to the cards
  • Using double sided tape and/or glue – attach the inserts to the cards (using glue will take longer to dry and will stiffen the cards up adding more dimension)
  • Create all 52 of your reasons cards and let the glue dry
  • Thread cards together. You can use yarn or rings that you can buy at a craft store.
  • You can create your reasons with Powerpoint or simply cut 6x4cm paper or cardstock paper and hand write your reasons.

Total Cost: FREE if you have items laying around the house, if not this should cost you less than $5 BUT it will mean the world to the person receiving it!!
