Valentine Craft Ideas For Kids
We love how this little handmade artisan book of ours inspired valentine craft ideas for kids. Two girls filled the pages with photos of themselves along with sweet messages about why they love their dad on paper hearts.
Materials We Used:
- Medium Silk Artisan Album
- Valentine Scrabook Paper
- Stamps (we like these heart stamps from Etsy seller TalktotheSun)
- Washi Tape (Etsy Seller PaisleyHandmade has lots of fun wash tape designs)
- Fun Photographs with red and pink colors
The Process
This activity is great for young children to practice their cutting skills. Teach them how to make a paper heart and have them write reasons why they love Mom, Dad, or both!
To make the little pocket for the heart messages, we just cut rectangle pieces of scrapbook paper and taped the edges to the artisan book pages. Very simple and easy!
We love the idea of having kids draw and write messages in the white space around photographs.
More Valentine Craft Ideas for Kids with our Artisan Albums

- Have children fill the pages with love poems about their favorite people and things to do
- Our artisan albums have thick, archival artists paper; perfect for drawing or watercolor
- For younger children, put their hand prints or foot prints on the pages, along with how old they are
- Have children write a story about their mother or father with illustrations
You can find our Artisan Album in our online store; we think personalizing it would be an extra nice touch. We also offer the artisan with a velvet bow, a lace bow, or in leather.
