To get started, import the valentine’s card SVG into Cricut Design Space. Check the scale of your card. I have mine set to be 5×7 inches once folded, so the card should measure 5 x 10 inches.

Next, we want to add a scoreline to the card. Grab a scoreline from the Shape’s Panel to the left and scale it to match the 5-inch height of the card.

Next, get your cardstock and heat transfer vinyl cut out for your DIY Valentine’s card. I am using glitter cardstock, so I selected that setting in Design Space.
