Impress someone special with a beautiful Valentine’s Day unicorn card w/ surprise chocolate as the nose!
Craft Supplies:
- Paper Trimmer
- White Heart Doilies
- Cardstock Paper
- Scrapbook Paper
- Small Wiggle Eyes
- Adhesive/Glue Stick
- Flower Embellishments
- Craft Scissors
- Large Glue Dots
- Chocolate Heart Candies
Directions:
- First things first – use adhesive to adhere your white paper doily to the center of a single sheet of cardstock {preferably something a shade darker than your white paper heart doily, so this portion of the unicorn POPS! I suggest a nice dark shade of pink or purple for Valentine’s Day}
- Next, take your white cardstock and trim out TWO small ears for your unicorn.
- At this point in time you would also trim out a unicorn horn from the gold paper.
- Use your adhesive to glue those to the heart doily you just adhered to the cardstock.
- Now take your wiggle eyes and place them down in the center of the paper heart doily.
- Use a large glue dot to now add your heart chocolate as the nose, on the bottom {tip} of the paper heart doily.
- Grab your flower embellishments and give your unicorn some beautiful hair.
- Now the final step – take your paper trimmer and NOW trim down your card to create the valentine. The size of yours may depends on how big you made your horn/how many flowers you added etc.
- At this point in time, go ahead and add other embellishments you see fit when done trimming.
- Finally – it’s time to your creation gift away!

Customize It:
- Don’t have or want to do chocolate? Maybe you want something that will mail flat in an envelope? Then skip the candy {like our image below} and instead just cut out an oval shaped cardstock nose shape instead! Still super adorable but a better fit for what you need!
