Cute DIY Valentine’s Day Cards with Pom Pom Scraps

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to show your love and appreciation than with a handmade Valentine’s Day card? This creative project is perfect for using leftover craft materials like pom pom bits and scrap fabric to make a one-of-a-kind card for a best friend or family member or even as a Galentine’s Day gift!

Materials You’ll Need

  • White cardstock or blank cards
  • A piece of red card
  • Scrap pom pom wool or fabric
  • A heart-shaped template
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • A pencil

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the Base of Your Card


Start with a folded piece of white cardstock or any blank card. This will be the foundation of your handmade Valentine’s Day card. If you don’t have pre-folded cards, a simple piece of construction paper folded in half also works.

Create the Heart Shape


Using a heart-shaped template, trace a red heart onto the red card. You can also create different-sized hearts to layer on your card later. Once traced, carefully cut out the heart.

Add the Pom Pom Wool and Scrap Fabric


Spread glue over the heart you’ve just cut out. Sprinkle leftover pom pom bits and tiny scraps of fabric across the glue, pressing them gently to ensure they stick. This step is where the magic happens—your creative Valentine’s Day card idea starts to come to life with texture and color!

Attach the Heart to Your Card


Cut a heart-shaped window in the folded piece of cardstock so the textured heart peeks through. Use double-sided tape or glue to secure the red heart behind the window. You can also cut out the red card and stick it to the front of the card. It is your choice.

Write a Heartfelt Message


Inside the card, write a heartfelt message to your recipient. Whether it’s a sweet note to your true love, a fun quip for your best friend, or warm wishes for a family member, your words will make the card even more special.
