You're So Glam! Booklet

You'll Need..
Paper 
Pencil
Earser
Something Glam (think sparkles)

1. Fold your paper in half. Then fold it again in hamburger style. Now fold it one last time. I chose a white piece of paper but it can be any colour. 
2. Fold it from the middle so that it makes a skinny hotdog fold. Now look at the creases (the lines from the fold)-you can count three. Now cut from the line on to line three. You cut on the edge of the folded part meaning the part opposite from the open flap.
3. Now this is the tricky part. Fold your paper in a hotdog again. You see the cut part? Gently pull on both sides and stop when you see a diamond with a tail at the front and back.
4. Now gently push those two tails towards the middle and stop when you get a weird + like shape. Now you have four tails and the two on the right you squish together and the two on the left you squish together. Squish all four together and now you have a booklet!
5. Now that you have your booklet decorate it! The theme of the "You're So Glam!" card is to over decorate (in a good way) the front cover then on the inside write why your valentine is so glam! Or you can turn it into a glam notebook and give as a gift.

Postcard Valentine

You'll need..
A stamp (optional) 
Paper (coloured or decorated)
Colouring supplies (optional)
An envelope 
Pencil
Earser 

1. Find a blank postcard. If you can't find one then grab a piece of coloured or decorated paper then trim it to make it look like a postcard. If the back isn't blank then glue on a blank piece of paper.
~mine is a paper with lots of quotes
2. Turn to the coloured side and add a stamp. It can be a fake one if you want, simply cut out a small rectangle, colour it then paste it to the upper corner of your postcard.
3. Now write the address. It can be completely made up with any kind of vibe- funny or sweet. Eg. Funny: Chocolate Fudge Streeet, 1367 Strawberry House.
4. Turn to the back and write down a message. You can turn this into an invite to a Valentine party if you want. Or you could write something such as "Because you're so sweet, I made this for you!".
Done! Now just put it in the envelope. If you don't have an envelope simply look here:
