Fun Shutter Card for Valentine’s Day

Today’s card is a Shutter Card. Have you made one of these cards before? They look difficult but really aren’t. With just a few strips of paper you create a fun look.

Check out today’s card that uses this fun technique

along with the Hope Love & Joy stamp set (166855) that has been used to create a card filled with love.

This set allows you to build words the way you’d like. Today’s card uses the heart and pull the “you” from another set such as Reason to Celebrate (166905). A bit of fussy cutting allows you to add it t to complete the message.

Team it up with your favorite paper like this card does. The Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper (165175) has such beautiful floral images and the colors are perfect for this Valentine’s Day card.

Now, want to know how that fun shutter look is created? Simply stamp your sentiment onto your card stock the size you’d like and adhere it down onto the larger panel. Then use your strips on each side of the sentiment panel, starting at the left edge and running off the edge. Repeat on the next side moving clock wise until all four sides are finished. (The floral Designer Series Paper is really just one larger piece although it doesn’t look like it when you’re done.) Voila!

If you’d like to see my Card that I created and shared with you using the technique why not check out my tutorial HERE? It even includes a video for you.

Enjoy!

Today’s card uses the the stamp set with it’s lovely sentiment along with some other products in the Florals in Bloom Suite (165193).

And great news, this Suite uses our 2025-2027 In Colors so it’s part of this month’s sale.

The color combinations just make me smile – after all how can you not smile with these bright cheerful colors?
