I love crafting with my kids. Although I personally love crafting in a more complicated or detailed manner, I find it very enjoyable to break it all down to the basics and make simple cards with the boys. Today I am sharing this simple card with not only my readers but the readers at She's A Sassy Lady.
What makes this card so easy is the ability to have it put together quickly. I had all the paper pre-cut for a 4 by 4 card. My matting was cut to 3.75 by 3.75 and the patterned paper is cut at 3.5 by 3.5, This paper is from Jillibean Soup. The "LOVE" and it heart layers were cut at 2.50 inches with Cricut Home Accents (real size off). We pop dotted the heart. These were made for Alexander's teachers and para.
I hope everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day!

Simple is always good. Love it! Love your color choices too!
What great cards to make with the boys. There is nothing better than crafting with the children... such a special time. Thanks for sharing with us today at She's A Sassy Lady.
Very cute card. Love the paper with it's kraft paper feel!
I tend to be detail oriented, myself. I have a 5 year-old who loves to craft with me. So, sometimes we simplify the project. My two daughters spent yesterday with me, creating 105 "valentines". My heart, (and their cards,) were filled with love. Just as your cards did, our projects turned out simple and sweet!
That's a wonderful card Elizabeth! I bet the boys loved making this one.
Love it!!What a beautiful card.
