My first ever DIY stuff on the blog just had to be a non fashion stuff. Haha. My first attempt at doing the DIY ripped denim left me with a deficit of one denim pant in my closet. Needless to say I’m never trying it again. No, thanks!
I already talked about my inspiration for this Love note card DIY in my last post and I was really happy with the positive feedback I got. I was a teeny weeny bit scared that it might come off as “childish” (for lack of a better word) but I’m a firm believer in the little things matter and a hand written note can never get old for me.
What You Need :
1. Cardboard
2. Glue
3.Scissors
4. Ruler
5. Pencil
STEP ONE :
You have to decide how small/big you want it to be. I used the back of a book to draw out mine and it had a length of 21cm and width of 14cm. After that, you cut it out.
You”ll end up with something like this
STEP TWO :
Now you also have to figure out how you’ll like to fold it. You actually don’t need to write it down like i did. I just wanted to show you the measurements i used so that both parts can be
equal.
STEP THREE :
Pretty self explanatory right? You just cut out the sides at the top
STEP FOUR :
Cut the top part into a triangle
STEP FIVE :
Fold it at the sides and the middle too and apply glue to the sides
 |
STEP SIX :
Fold it over and allow to dry
And Voila!!
Now all that’s left is to write a note and put it into this and you can leave it where you know they can find it. 🙂
Please let me know if you’re going to try this
Have a lovely weekend guys!

You are definitely creative, Cassie. As simple as this sounds and looks why am I nervous to hold a ruler? You're challenging me o. Lol
Oh why, thank you. I guess I am creative, now that I think about it. Ha ha. Thank You!
Maybe because you haven't held one in a long while? Before I made this, I hadn't even set my eyes on a ruler in forever. Lol
