Hello..
I really need to know how do children (ages 6- 8 ) in Russia made Valentine's day Greeting cards about 10 years ago.. I need to know how they look like..

if any one has a picture of a child's greeting card from that time, please send me a picture, I really need to see how they looked like..

and if you don't have a picture, can you at least describe to me?

Thanks a lot, I really need this :]

You can take a pice of paper and make a Valentine's day card in the form of a hart
That's all we knew 10 years ago Smile
Those in the ages of 6-8 I suppose didn't know anything about it yet.

Yeah, homemade cards are the best. We always used RED color construction paper or card stock, scissors (any cool cutting scissors)cut it into a heart, Elmers glue, a little glitter, colored markers, a drawing and something nice to say goes a long ways. Wink
