Valentine’s Day Cards

Guess Who’s Sweet on You?   Is a great idea for a Valentine’s Day card as they are supposed to be from a secret admirer and to be honest I received one as a teen who I still to this day do not know who it was from.

I love the candy style of writing for the words sweet on you as it just tickles my fancy – what do you think?

This is the reason I never guessed who sent me my mystery Valentines all of those years ago – the inside of the card just had a big question mark while the envelope had my name and address made up of letters cut out of the local newspaper.   This wasn’t an original idea, but one which a lot of people used on Valentine’s Day back in the 80s (and probably before that too).

The ducks to me just look like a thoroughly contented couple – a pair that are just happy being together and are comfortable to just be in each other’s company without having to be doing anything else except…..being!

The duck and the New Zealand wallaby just look strange together!   I actually took this photo at a lion park in New Zealand and I couldn’t get over the fact that they looked the same size (I’m used to Australian wallabies that are a little bigger).   When I looked at the photo after I got home I just thought what an odd couple and so this card was made.    Let’s face it Valentine’s Day are all about couples and there are a lot of couples that do appear to be an odder match up than a duck and a wallaby!

The final card is of a pair of birds that just seemed to be totally in tune with each other which is why I thought it was the perfect material for a Valentine’s Day card.

This card can be personalized which I think is great.   Now I know we aren’t supposed to admit it, but we’ve all carved, written or painted initials on something in our lives haven’t we?   I’ve written on a school desk, a boy carved our initials into a tree at the park, but I’ve never actually put graffiti on anything especially not a bench.

With this customisable Valentine’s Day card you’re encouraged to graffiti the park bench with your initials and those of your Valentine – how cool is that?
