Send Your Valentine Sweet Nothings Via Paperless Post

Valentine's Day isn't just for lovers.  Think of all the people you love: family, friends, pets, frenemies (whom you love to hate), bosses, roommates, etc.  The past two years I have sent Valentine's Day cards to my friends and fam, but this year I decided to get with the times and use PaperlessPost.com.  Don't tell anyone I procrastinated and missed the V-Day window, but I actually sent a ton of Christmas cards this year so I don't feel too incredibly horrible.  Either way....who doesn't love to get a little love on Feb. 14th!  I sent 25 e-cards (first 25 'stamps' are free with signing up), and had to purchase about $10 worth of 'custom coins'.  They had lovey dovey, modern, and fun cards (oh the choices!), and once I got started the process was very easy: Pick a card, write a message, type your peeps' email addresses, and you're off!  They also have tons of options for birthday's, thank you's, invites, save the date cards, and even wedding invitations.  I also love how the envelope 'opens' so there is a tiny bit of suspense. 

Happy Valentine's Day everyone, and be sure to eat a cupcake today!  I will definitely be hitting up Magnolia or Billy's. ;-)

Be Mine Valentine!--Great Cards for Lovers, Fighters, Friends and Fam

I was just remembering the good ole days of elementary school when we decorated paper bags for our 'mailbox' and made little Valentine's Day cards for all of our classmates. I think Ninja Turtles, Barbie, and whatever Disney movie had just come out were the most popular, and you always hoped your secret crush would write you a little message or slip you an extra piece of candy. Ah, love and longing at the ripe old age of ten.

I still enjoy sending Valentine's Day cards. I am not too into the ooey gooey presents, heart-shaped boxes of chocolates, and flowers gig, but I do love to send cards to my family and best friends. I always look for funny, witty cards without all the sap and romance of traditional greeting cards. This year I found the most wonderful cards by a company called Egg Press. I also have a bunch of blank red cards with matching envelopes that I am rubber stamping with curly-cues to give it a little V-Day flair. Remember: bros before hos and sistas before mistas. Don't forget your friends and fam this Valentine's Day!
