Valentine Mini Cards by Michelle


Welcome to day #4 of Valentine's Week here on the SRM Blog. 

Michelle Giraud has created some super simple mini Valentine cards with a center gate fold and a band to hold it together.  The cards measure 3 x 3.  Using a 3 x 6 sheet of paper, Michelle scored at 1.5 and 4.5 to fold into the center.

Inside the card there's a Valentine sentiment and heart sticker from the SRM Stickers by the Dozen Valentine sheet.

Michelle added SRM Valentine Border stickers along the bottom of the cards.  These can be snipped in half when cutting open the cards.

Michelle loved this idea so much she created another set of cards but this time a little bigger.  These cards measure 3 x 4 1/4.  Michelle scored these with her Scorepal which already has the markings for this size gate fold.  How handy!

Michelle used up a sheet of 6 x 6 paper from Basic Grey to decor the from of this car and then added the embellishment band with the "Hugs" sticker on the front. That sticker is from SRM's Labels by the Dozen Valentine sheet.  The inside is decorated with stickers from the Valentine Stickers by the Dozen sheet.

Esp love that first set of valentines. Very elegant and formally-dressed in simple B/W and red. The heart in the circle of dots is great!
