In this post you will find over 20 beautiful DIY handmade card ideas for Valentine’s Day. What makes these cards unique – they are all embellished with crochet appliques.
Over a few years, I have designed many crochet heart-shaped appliques that are perfect for Valentine’s Day card embellishments. If you love to crochet, you can easy make unique handmade Valentine’s cards to impress your loved one and say “Happy Valentine’s Day!” in a special, unique and cute way.

For my DIY Valentine’s cards I didn’t use any special tools like punches, die-cutters, or rubber stamps. But if you have those tools and would like to use them, you can add any additional elements to your cards as you wish. You also don’t need to be limited by my design ideas. Be creative and use your tools and materials as you wish!
The messaging on the cards can be computer-generated or hand-written. I type messages in a Word document, then I print them and cut them out with decorative-edged scissors that I have at home. If you have beautiful handwriting, you can write the messages by hand for the added personal touch.
For your handmade Christmas cards you can use cardstock colored paper or use store-bought blank cards. If you are planning to use card stock, you will need a paper trimmer. You also can embellish your Christmas cards with stickers or sequins.
