Consider the many humorous paths you can take. We have designs that are witty, cheesy, include puns, or poke fun at oneself or a common shared experience. We even have some greetings that highlight comedic experiences you may have had with social distancing, quarantining, and participating in virtual calls this year. Use the “funny” filter to find all of our Minted designs that will help tickle the funny bone this February.
• Bold & Typographical: Maybe your style is edgier and rooted in a fresh eye-catching design. Use the “bold & typographical” filter to find cards featuring striking elements, including large handwritten fonts and heavy lettering. Add a regal charm to your message with a foil-pressed valentine.

DETAILED PERSONALIZATION

On top of design excellence, our website offers easy-to-use yet sophisticated tools to help you modify your chosen design and personalize it for all of your needs. Take a look at how you can create personalized Valentine’s Day cards that will stand out compared to the more common bulk packaged cards that others may be handing out. Add your name alongside Cupid’s arrows. Change the shape of the card to resemble a heart. Let your creativity drive you. Below are some design features you can adjust.

• Photo Selection: You can make your correspondence come to life with one, two, three, or more photos. In a year where friends and family may not have seen your smiling face as frequently as they would like, including a photo in your February correspondence will be a great bonus. Simply upload your photos to the customization tool and drop them into the different photo blocks to view how they appear framed in our artistic designs. You can even drag and drop your photos from one box to the next as you figure out the perfect placement and arrangement for each cherished image. If you don't want photos on the front of the card, choose one of the many backer layouts to include one or more photos on the back of your card.
• Card Shape: Experiment with different border shapes such as heart-shaped, rounded corners, or a gift tag shape. You can also choose between a flat or folded card depending on where you’d like to write a more personalized Valentine message to each recipient.
• Colors: Toggle between the colored icons to see how that design appears with a different color theme. Once you’ve found a theme you like, customize your selection further by choosing between different font colors for the text on the front and back of the card. Modifying the colors is a great way to make the design fit better with the aesthetic you love or to better match the photos you are featuring.
• Foil-Pressed: If you’d like to add a little shimmer to your design, opt to add “custom foil text” to your card. Foil colors include red, gold, glittery gold, rose gold, silver, glittery silver, ice blue, bronze, strawberry, and amethyst. Show your valentine some extra love with a touching message that literally sparkles!
• Paper Type: We always print with the finest inks on luxurious stocks to give you the quality you can feel. When making your paper choice, choose between Smooth Signature, Signature, Recycled, Pearlescent, Doublethick, or Triplethick cardstocks.
• Design on Back: Customize the back of your card with stylized designs that include more photos or watercolor elements. You can even choose from various text layouts to feature family news such as a new home announcement, pet update, a birth announcement, or even a special family Valentine's recipe.
• Envelope Colors: Once you’re happy with your card design, the next step is to package it in style! Choose from our envelope colors including white for a classic look, speckletone kraft for a rustic feel, or silver for an elegant touch. We even have pink and red envelopes this year! You can even choose from a designed, silver, gold, or rose gold liner to add an element of class inside your envelope.
• Recipient Addressing: Next, make the envelope radiate from the outside by adding a free stylized address format that compliments your selected card design. Pick an addressing design you love from our options that feature red hearts, Cupid’s arrows, “X’s” and “O’s”, cute animals, and other imagery you would associate with Valentine’s Day! Once you’ve made your selection, simply upload your addresses and let us do the printing work for you.

BRAINSTORMING VALENTINE IDEAS

Now that you know the drill, it’s time to brainstorm what to put on your card!

1. Couple Photo: Were you recently married or engaged? Valentine’s Day cards are the perfect way to display a photo from your special moment. From a photo of the proposal or a snapshot at the altar, share your experience with loved ones. Or maybe you recently had an anniversary with your significant other. Valentine’s Day is the perfect moment to reminisce on old times and share a throwback photo of you and your loved one for your Valentine’s anniversary!

2. Family Pictures: Maybe you recently did a photo shoot with your family or took a snapshot while on vacation. Take this opportunity to share your family photo with friends and loved ones. And of course, pets count too. So if you have a recent photo of your beloved animal, don’t forget to feature them in your design as well!

3. Just the Kiddos: It’s okay if the parents in the family are camera-shy and you only have a photo of the kids. Why not share a photo of the siblings to showcase that brotherly or sisterly love? Or perhaps you recently had a child. Take the opportunity to share a photo of your precious newborn.

The Final Step: What do you write in it?

Just as there is no single way to someone’s heart, there is no special formula for a valentine message. The key is to write from the heart, but often our hearts have so much to say that parsing it down to just a few meaningful words is hard. The first step in finding the right words to say is reminiscing on past times spent with your loved one and what it means to you. Once you’ve found the right words to say, choose from an array of Minted card styles and layouts to make your message pop. A great way to focus on a heartfelt message is by quoting someone, either in agreement or in contrast, or as context to your own circumstances.
