Once you open your free Cricut design space file, your ready to cut out the card. Choose your cardstock colours, and follow the prompts on the cutting preview screen to add materials at the right times. We cut ours out with of medium card stock and used the "more" pressure setting.

After your card pieces are all cut out of card stock, it's time to assemble it. Because we want the card to be able to fold flat when it's finished, when you are gluing the main parts together take the time to bend it flat in each direction to ensure each piece is properly lined up.

Begin by glueing together the outer mailbox piece, with tacky glue along the flap. I tried a few different gluing methods for this but I found that glue tape or a glue dot didn't work that well here, and decided on regular glue. Hold the glued piece in place for a few seconds until it is set.

Next assemble the insert #2 to hold a gift card. Fold this piece to create the pocket that can hold the gift card. It's best to use scotch tape on the bottom and sides to great the pocket -this ensures the space is large enough for the gift card, and that the glue doesn't accidently get in the way.

Next add the three card inserts. Begin by gluing the piece labeled #1 to the front of the inside of the box. Next glue #3 to the back of the inside of the box. Lastly, fold in the tabs at the top and bottom of #2 and use these as spaces against the back or front to glue it into the middle of the card. After gluing in these pink pieces, be sure to let it dry for a few minutes before moving on to the embellishments.

Now embellish the front of the card with the mailbox white piece. Add an "XO" above the mail slot on the front.

To assemble the love letters, fold the flap over on the dashed line and glue in place. Add a heart to the front of each one, decided on which ever heart colour and size you prefer.

Next decorate the top of the card by gluing various letters and hearts to the top. Vary the sizes and colours. There are extra hearts and letters that you can add as a little bit of confetti to the card envelope.

The finished cricut Valentine cards should fit in any A7 envelope.
