Make a Cut-Out Valentine Card

Step 7Cut cut cut...

Cut cut cut...
Break out an X-acto knife and go to town. Use the printout to cut the design out of one half of a piece of paper.

These were cut on our 75 watt Epilog laser cutter. For all you laser geeks out there, I cut a line on the middle of the inside of the card at 100/4 to score it for the fold and the card was cut at 100/30.

Fold it over and you have a card. Glue a piece of white paper on the inside and you have a backdrop for the cut-out design and a place to write more sweet messages.

Enjoy!

As a woman, I'm thinking about making some of these for my closest guy friends! "You look even sexier through my binoculars" sounds like a good one. ;)

"I'm stalking you," sounds like a good one as well. ;)
