When I was in school, it was so much fun to pick out your box of Valentine’s Day cards and hand them out to your class. When I got older and didn’t need a whole box of cards, I would make a handmade card for my boyfriend. with a heartfelt message inside. Making my own cards just felt so much more special.

Now, in the days of Pinterest, everyone is making super cute cards. And it feels like my two worlds have collided.

If you’re not a Pinterest mom, but now you feel obligated to let your kid hand out cards that are a little more personal, we have some printable Valentine’s Day cards on this list of DIY Valentine’s Day Cards for you. And if you’re someone who wants to make cards but you just need a little inspiration, we have cards for you on this list too.

The play on words might work better with older kids, but the tattoos will be a big hit with younger kids. Maybe not parents, though. So you might want to use a stick on mustache instead … just in case.
