Make Thoughtful Cards Out of Paint Chips Using Paint Names
I have been making cards, booklets, and posters out of paint chips for years. What is original about my idea (and I’ve never seen it done by anyone else), is that I pay attention to the paint name on the chip.
All you need is a hole punch, scissors (if you want to cut the names into hearts for a card), and fasteners.

****For Kid friendly gifts just use kid friendly paint names, which are about 99% of paint names****
I have made cards with wine names, vacation themes, movie themes, and the list goes on and on. As I was picking up paint, I noticed that Home Depot had some great paint color names for Valentine’s Day and Galantine’s Day. All you need are free paint chips and cheap fasteners for the booklet. You can write on every page if you’d like, like the DIY Playing Card Valentine’s Day gift “52 Reasons I Love You” here.
These are the cards I used for my booklet:
- Heart Breaker
- BFF
- Heart to Heart
- Epiphany
- Stolen Kiss
- XOXO
- Joie de Vivre
- I Heart Potion
- Lover’s Knot
- Night Music
- Love Poem
- Lovebirds
- I Pink I Can
- Love at First Sight
- Infatuation
- Diva Glam
- Kiss Goodnight
- Magic Scent
- Romantic Poetry
- Secret Scent
