手把手教你制作情人节英语贺卡

Valentine’s Day will be here before you know it. While you might have spent hours as a kid hand-crafting the perfect cards for your family and friends, you may not have the same inspiration at your disposal as an adult. Sure, you have the option to purchase various options of prewritten cards, but one of the best Valentine’s Day gifts you can give to any loved one is a heartfelt, handwritten message.

What To Write in a Valentine’s Day Card

Do you want to hand-craft a personalized Valentine’s Day card but don’t know where to start? Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Email, texting and even digital greeting cards have made it so that we don’t need to consider the different parts that make up a card. When you’re crafting the perfect card for your loved ones, make sure they contain a(n):

• • Introduction

• • Valentine’s Day Greeting

• • Personal Touches

• • Sign-off

Introduction

Just like every love story has a beginning, so should every greeting card. While it’s likely that you have a close relationship with the recipient, there are a few different options you can use when it comes to an introduction, depending on the person. These can include:

• • Dear [recipient’s first name],

• • To my love on Valentine’s Day,

• • To my best friend,

• • To my child this Valentine’s Day,

However you choose to start your card, remember it should reflect on your relationship to the person you are writing to.

Valentine’s Day Greeting

The whole reason behind penning your own card is to give your special someone a notable Valentine’s Day greeting. Add a special touch and give your recipient a loving message; we have plenty below to choose from.

Personal Touches

After your greeting, you have some room to add some personal touches and express the love you have for your recipient. Whether it’s a new love, an experienced love, a love for a friend or a love for a child, use this space to communicate how you feel and how happy you are that you have them in your life.

Sign-off

A warm closing before your signature is like the bow on top of your valentine message. Choose one of ours, or come up with one of your own.

Friends & family

• Warmly,

• Love,

• With love,

• Lots of love,

• Love always,

• Much love to you,

Romantic love

• All my love,

• Love you,

• All yours,

• Forever yours,

• Endlessly,

• Passionately,

• Truly,

• Gratefully,

• All my heart,

• Always and forever,

• Hugs and kisses,

• Kisses,

• XOXOXO,

• Under your spell,

• Mmmmwah,

• With all my love on Valentine’s Day and always,

Once your card is complete, think about how you will be giving this to your special someone. You can leave your festive note on a counter, in their car or even on a nightstand. However they receive your card, they’ll be sure to both love and appreciate it.

Valentine’s Day Messages for Romance

Writing tip: One Hallmark writer fondly remembers how his grandmother, who always sent valentines, would always choose a couple of words to underline. It seemed kind of random, but they would usually be part of a list of nice things about him. Consider emphasizing certain important words in your message—with underlining, all-caps…or maybe even bubble letters.

Simple Valentine’s Day Messages

Writing tips: Using the recipient’s nickname (or private pet name!) can instantly make a simple wish feel warmer and more personal.

For your significant other, you might decide to give more than one Valentine card…and write more than one personal message. If you go this route, consider giving a mix of serious, heartfelt and playful messages, delivered at different times of the day—tucked behind his toothbrush, left on the seat of her car, sent to his office, hand-delivered over a candlelit dinner…

If you’re married to your Valentine, consider including in your count all the Valentine’s Days you shared before tying the knot. Depending on how long you dated, it could make for a much bigger number than your anniversary count!

No matter what you say, use words that sound like you. If you are sincere and you are yourself, your card will be as meaningful as you want it to be.

Valentine messages come in many different forms and you don’t have to be limited to sending a card to just one person. To make the day even better for your special someone, try dropping them little surprises throughout the day like a thoughtful desk plant or fun balloon. However you decide to celebrate, spend time with your loved ones and have a happy Valentine’s Day!
