School-sized “Bee Mine” Cards
“Bee Mine Valentine Cards & Treat Topper” a playing card deck by Joelle Paleologou, template 50265, is a wonderful school Valentine that works well for a boy or a girl. With several “post card” styles to choose from and a spot to turn your child’s photo into a postage stamp, you can use the 54-card deck to make sets for two or three youngsters in the family. And the best part about Heritage Makers Valentines? No need to supervise the time-consuming signing of each card!
For the Boys
School Valentines can be more problematic for the boys than the girls. Boys want to join in the fun of giving out Valentines but don’t want their cards to be too mushy. Another playing card deck, a set by Lynda Angelastro, addresses the dilemma with a robot-themed set of Valentine cards. “Robot Valentines,” template 77324 has a photo of the sender on one side and a choice of several cleverly worded, robot-related greetings on the other.
Dinosaur Greetings
Another adorable set of school Valentines is the “Rawr Valentine” playing card deck from Tanja Rigby. Template 50328 works equally well for boys or girls and is another deck that could be split between two children in the family. Just make half the names on the card faces from one child and half from the other.
Any Age or Gender Valentines
For a clean and contemporary style your child will love, consider Jill Means’ playing card deck “Little Valentines- Variety,” template 47790. With six choices for the face of the card, this is also a deck that could serve the school Valentine needs of the entire family.
Cards for the One You Love
For a sentimental Valentine for husband or boyfriend try Lynda Angelastro’s “Open Heart Valentine.” This 5 x 7 greeting card is a wonderful way to express your deepest love and is template 51193.
For a card specifically designed for your longer love letter, try “Love is the Start” by Kari Pieratt. It’s a 7 x 5 greeting card, template 49795, that says “love letter” inside with room for you to write one.
For a card with a lighter touch, check out Deanna Payne’s 7 x 5 greeting card “My Man Valentine,” template 26379, that has a simple “I Love You” on the inside of the card. These are just two of the many grown up cards you’ll find in the Template Gallery. Use our single word search and simply enter “Valentine.”
A Card for the Kids
Valentine’s Day is the perfect time to tell your children they are loved and there is no better card than Tanja Rigby’s 3-panel family fold “Funny Little Valentine,” template 49350. While this gorgeous card could easily be adapted for your romantic interest, its message of love for your little one is one you’ll want to be sure and send this Valentine’s Day.
Everlasting Love
Let your child know that you are not the only one that loves them with Tanja’s 7 x 5 storybook “A Valentine for My Little Sparrow,” template 47553 (it matches the card above). The text in this stunning beautiful and uplifting storybook is based on a faith-focused verse about God’s love for even the smallest sparrow.
Valentine Gift Book
Another perfect Valentine gift is this appreciation flip book “What I Love about You” by Tanja Rigby, template 49851. Fill it with heart-felt sentiments telling your daughter, best friend or coworker how important she is to you. You’ll need nine snapshots to complete the purse-packable size book.
“The” Valentine Gift
If this is the year you want to really tell your sweetheart how much he means to you, why not make a canvas gift as your Valentine present? There are many beautiful canvases in the Template Gallery that would make wonderful gifts for your someone special. Here are just a few suggestions. “Now & Forever” the 12 x 12 canvas by Kimberly Keber, template 69316, shown above is a wonderful way to display a treasured casual photo that shows how much you mean to each other.
For a canvas featuring a more formal photo, look to Wendy Bailey’s “The Hands of Time.” It’s a 20 x 16 canvas, template number 52700, and will become a priceless portrait of the love you share.
For a lighter look at romance, use Sandra Dovre’s “All We Need is Love.” This 8 x 8 canvas, template 37355 requires no personalization unless you’d like to replicate the photos using your own hands. The second of Sandra’s canvases shown here, “Love Always,” is also a snap to personalize.
