Make a Valentine card, envelope, and wrap it in cute Valentine's Day wrapping paper!

This makes a nice Valentine's Day card for Mommy, Daddy, or Grandma...or anyone special. It's small enough to tuck into a lunch bag or briefcase, too!

Mom's Break Valentines

Print the cards and the envelope. Print the wrapping paper design of your choice.

 

Select the card you want from the three that are shown on the page. Cut out that card.

Be sure to fill in the To and From lines!

Trim the envelope, as shown here. Be sure to keep the folding instructions!

Fold flap A up toward the middle.

Fold in one flap B, and then the other.

With both B flaps folded in, run the glue stick along flap A, and press both B flaps down.
Now, tuck the card into the envelope.
Fold over flap C, and glue down.

If you don't want the letter C to show, then simply trim off the edge of flap C, as shown here.

Now, you can address the envelope and decorate with stickers or glitter. Younger kids can simply color something on the envelope.
Trim the wrapping paper along the dotted line.
Place the card in the middle of the wrapping paper, and fold up the bottom edge.
Fold in the sides. You might want to run the glue stick along the folded over sides, and press down to hold them in place.
Now fold over the top, and glue down.
You can write on the wrapping paper, or simply leave as is!
