Valentines Cards

Does anyone else make Valentine's Day cards? I'm starting mine and would love to see some of your ideas. I made this one for my minimalist husband. He is always telling me to keep his simple so I'm hoping he likes it. Since his is done, I need to get the others finished and need some inspiration :)

Beautiful card, Robin! I love making cards! I made some simple ones with my grandson the other day but I want to make some myself for handing out haha.

I love to use foam squares and pop up some illustrated die cuts, etc. And love using patterned paper, too.

So far I do the basic cards, but I would love to do some more interactive ones. Well, I guess I have done shaker cards which are fun, but I want to try some that have the sliding parts, etc.
 
Robin, do you use a cutting machine to help you make your cards? I'm considering buying a Cricut as soon as I make space for it, haha.
 
Girls these are super cute!! You inspire me to try again...

I have not made cards in eons, but I did do a cute thing once.

It was originally from Family Fun Magazine, but I'm not finding the project online. I did find a couple of others... I painted a whole page of contact paper and then cut out into hearts larger than my message - sticking the heart onto the card. The back had her To and From...

These are all so cute! One year I made Valentine Cards for my son to give to his classmates. Lately I've made little stickers that my daughter would stick onto her Hershey Bars to give to her classmates. It would have her name on it along with one of these cute graphics from Traci's Galentines stickers.
