While February is cold and dreary and wet and miserable for those of us who live in the Northern hemisphere, the excitement of Valentine’s Day offers a bit of sunshine, especially when you have kids. There are so many fun activities to do together – my favorite is to make love-inspired treats! – and once your little ones start school, the excitement of making the perfect DIY Valentine’s Day cards offers the perfect excuse to forget about the snow and sleet and focus on something a little more positive.
Of course, anyone can make heart-shaped cards with a bit of red construction paper and a few doilies, but if you’re an overachiever like I am, chances are you want to spice things up and make DIY Valentine’s Day cards that stand out from all the others.
I’ve rounded up 10 different ideas to give you a little inspiration, but be warned – these are so darn cute, you won’t want to give them away!
