They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but sometimes your written or printed sentiments can make a suitable and affordable alternative. Whether you’re buying flowers, candy, or something bigger on Valentine’s Day, a nice card is like a sit-down interview with Barbara Walters – say anything resembling your innermost feelings and your audience will feel like they have a window into your soul. This year, save yourself a trip to the drugstore and print a card from the comfort of your own home. Here are some free resources on the Internet that can minimize the wear and tear on your car tires, shoes and wallet:
Just type “valentine” into the HP.com search engine and check the first 20 results for free Valentine’s designs and projects, including cards for kids and adults, stationery, and even printable photo frames and albums. These items can come in especially handy when you’re scrambling for a last minute gift idea. Pretty much all the designs are in pdf format, so be sure to download Acrobat if you haven’t already done so.
123printcards.com has four pages of printable cards and a custom printable envelope page for an all-in-one Valentine’s Day resource. The first two pages of cards feature cartoon-like designs, while pages three and four feature photos and sharper-looking designs. Overall, it’s a relatively diverse alternative to the HP website.
Hopefully you find these links helpful for this year and years to come. Have fun and enjoy the holiday.
