Why You’ll Love This Printable
This fun Valentine craft is perfect for kids who don’t feel “crafty” enough to come up with their own card design, but who still wants to do something special for their friends on Valentine’s Day.
And because all they need to do is colour in the designs, they will be able to complete this project completely on their own—which means that you, as a parent, won’t have to be heavily involved.
Printing out your own Valentine cards also means that you’ll need very few craft supplies, which makes this a great last-minute project for kids who wait until February 13th to start making valentines.
How to Print These Cards
After you download each PDF printable to your phone or computer, print the pages on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 x 11 inches) and hand them over to your kids so they can colour in the cards using their favourite crayons, markers or pencils.
Although these cards are designed to be printed on US Letter paper, you may be able to print these cards on A4 paper as well by adjusting the “Scale to Fit” setting to make sure that none of the printable area gets cut off during printing.
However, these cards have been designed to fit perfectly inside standard A7 envelopes when printed at 100% scale on US Letter. This means that if adjust the print scale in order to print them on a different paper format, the cards will no longer have the intended dimensions.

Includes our 3 free Valentine cards as well as 9 MORE designs that your kids can hand out to all their classmates!
The full set includes foldable cards in both large and small formats (two per page) that can be placed inside standard A7 or A1 envelopes.

How to Use Your Free Printable Valentine Cards
1. Print Cards
Once you have downloaded the printable cards, open the files on your phone or computer and print the templates on three separate sheets of US Letter-sized paper or cardstock (8.5 x 11 inches).
Note: While regular printer paper should work, I really recommend using cardstock because it’s a lot sturdier. It will also prevent the ink from bleeding through if your child decides to colour in the cards with markers. If you don’t have any cardstock on hand, you will probably want to offer crayons or coloured pencils instead to prevent the colours from bleeding through the paper.
2. Colour Cards
Colour in the black and white drawings using crayons, pencils, markers or whatever else you have on hand.
You can also experiment with using metallic markers or pencils, glitter gel pens or anything else you think would be fun—but I do recommend that you avoid using pastels and any of medium that is likely to smudge the inside of the envelope.
3. Cut Out Cards
Use scissors to cut along the lines. You can also use a paper trimmer if you happen to have one at home, but this is totally optional and scissors will work just fine.
4. Fold Cards
When you’re done colouring in the designs, fold each colouring card along the line in the middle. Each card measures a total of 10×7 inches when laid flat, making them 5×7 inches in size once folded. This means that once these cards are coloured in and folded in half, they’ll fit perfectly inside standard A7 envelopes.
If you’re not looking to create foldable cards, feel free to simply cut out the half of the card with the design and write on the back instead—it’s totally up to you!
5. Write Message
Once your Valentine’s card has been folded in half, write a message on the inside. Then, place it inside an A7 envelope and wait until Valentine’s Day to gift them to school friends, teachers, Mom, Grandma, or anyone else you want to surprise on Valentine’s Day!
