Rockin’ Valentine’s Day cards from Rock Scissor Paper. I’m loving the pattern on the xoxo card and the whimsical themes and vibrant pinks, reds, and oranges used in the designs. Cards are $2.25 each.

Get ready for some cute monkeys because Hello! Lucky’s Valentine’s Day offering is full of them! There are lots of other cute animals like squirrels and elephants, but there’s just something about those monkeys:

Valentine’s Day at Paper Source

Paper Source has some lovely paper things for Valentine’s Day, including letterpress notes, rubber stamps, and gift wrap. I like how they use the design elements in different applications — for instance, a cute design on both a letterpress card and as a rubber stamp, or a design used in both gift wrap and as an envelope for a card. This makes it easy for you to create your own custom theme!

The Dark Side of Valentine’s Day

kristen — Wed, 17 Jan 2007 11:10:15 +0000

What says “I love you” more than a Valentine’s Day card which features a feral cat that’s about to attach itself to your neck like a vampire who hasn’t had a drop of blood since flannel shirts were in style? My Creepy Valentine is the most disturbing, perverse and, in some cases, completely offensive collection of “vintage creepy” Valentine’s Day cards that the web has to offer.

Hey, maybe the cat’s just upset because he has a “Valentine Greetings” heart tied to his tail?

Papered Together is on top of it and is offering some lovely nostalgic Valentine’s Day designs, such as the “Bee Mine” card above. $3.40 each at Papered Together’s Etsy shop.
