This year, our budget for Valentine’s Day is very small. Ok… it’s non-existent. So, I wanted to do something that wouldn’t cost anything but would still be romantic. Flipping through my Pinterest boards, I saw several ideas for romantic calendars and decided to create a countdown of my own.
After creating the printables (available for you below), I pulled out a sheet of brown construction paper, decorative scissors, glue, a hole punch, and some ribbon. (Shhh… I also snatched some heart-shaped sticker from the secret stash I keep for rainy days.) The project, including cutting out the circles by hand, took less than an hour.
Considering that I am not a very crafty person, I think they turned out really cute! And, these cards will be a great way to build towards our romantic dinner at home.
The circles are 1-inch so if you have a circle punch… you lucky dog. Also, the idea cards can be cut from cardstock or printed on three sheets of business card paper.
