Learn how to make a Vinyl Record Valentine’s Day Card with your Cricut!

This Valentine’s Day card can be customized with any colors or text so you can make it personalized for the person you are giving it to. If you like more of a basic look, leave the top pink layer off. If you need help adding more text, learn how to use pens to write with your Cricut to make the card more personalized.

Watch the step-by-step tutorial to learn how to make this viny record Valentine card here:

To Make this Valentine’s Day Card, You Will Need:

• Medium Weight Cardstock. You can find all the colors you need in this variety pack.
• 2mm Black Craft Foam for the record or you can use black cardstock instead.
• Scoring Stylus (which is what I will be using in this tutorial) or Scoring Wheel (Maker only).
• Cricut Pens – I have this pack so I always have the color I need on hand.
• A good paper craft glue – this Bearly Art craft glue is what I am using.
• Cricut cutting machine – Use this Cricut Comparison Guide to find the right model for you!

Step 1: Upload the Valentine Card SVG to Cricut Design Space

Upload the vinyl Valentine Card SVG to Cricut Design Space. If you need help with uploading SVG files, then check out my tutorial here. Make sure to check the size of your project and adjust if needed. Click on the image (while everything is grouped together) and the width should be 6″ and the height 8.001″.

After resizing your project (if needed), click on “ungroup” to ungroup your layers.

Step 2: Change Cut Lines to Score

Click the drop down arrow for the record layer (3rd layer). Then click on the first layer and change the operation to from “Basic” to “Score”.

Then select the group with both layers (score lines and record) and select “attach”. This will attach the score line to the layer it scores on so your Cricut knows where to score. Repeat this for the card layer (bottom layer) as well.

Note: If you are not using a scoring tool (highly recommend that you do), then delete the cut lines instead.

Step 3: Change Text to Pen

Open the layer with the pink card and select the layer with the text. Then change the operation to “Pen”.

Note: You can delete this layer and add your own text if you want your card to say something different.

Then select the group with the pink card and text together and select attach. This attaches the text to the layer it will write on so your Cricut knows where to write.

Design Tip: Delete the pink layer and attach the pen to the card layer along with the score lines for a simpler card design.

Step 4: Assemble the Card

Like I mentioned before, this is a super easy card to assemble. Start by folding the card in half. Then glue the pink layer to the front of the card, followed by the vinyl record, the heart and then last glue the tonearm (gray piece) on top.

This card fits perfectly in a 4″x6″ envelope. If you don’t have this size, grab my free envelope template to make your own.

I love using craft foam to make the vinyl record. This adds more depth to the card, and you get a great indent from the score lines for a realistic look. But, if you don’t have craft foam on hand, the score lines till show up on the cardstock so you can still throw this together last minute if you need.
