Here is how to create your Valentines cards with zentangle art:

  1. Look up various inspiration for zentangle designs – you can find inspiration at our article that covers pattern ideas
  2. Get busy drawing your designs on your cards. We made single and double heart designs, some hearts with ribbons and words on them, hearts with arrows through them and more.
  3. Add words such as “Be Mine”, “Happy Valentine’s Day”, “Love” to adorn your cards.
  4. Once you have drawn the main shapes, design s and words you can go back inside your designs and start drawing zentangle designs.
  5. Color your designs. We used watercolor cards so we added color with watercolor paint.
  6. Let your cards dry 15-30 min and they are ready to use and gift to special people in your life.
