For the past several years, I’ve looked forward to
Kate Spade’s “Be Mine” gallery of e-valentines that pops up in February. A smattering of cute and clever designs from a mix of great artists, what’s not to love? If you’re still searching for the perfect tangible Valentine, I’ve teamed up with Curbly for one more Valentine round-up:
“Totally Sweet Valentine Cards for Her”.

I had the pleasure of ogling
Tokketok’s goods at
Little Winter in November. A lovely and cohesive line, I haven’t seen a single design that I didn’t like. Get your
“…so I must love you cards” now, I hear that they’re selling like hotcakes!

Absolutely loving this card from
BirdDog Press, I find the use of vintage wood type irresistible! I had the pleasure of meeting Allison, proprietress of BirdDog, at the
National Stationey Show last year – truly a talented designer and printmaker.

I’m simply nuts about Anna Bond’s signature floral illustrations. The identity that she created for
Bonnie Tsang’s photography business is one of my favorite examples of her floral work. Her newly launched stationery company,
Rifle Paper Co. showcases Anna’s amazing talents. Above is a pick from the Valentine collection – more
here.
Post Edit:
The ever-lovely Gabby, of Gabby She Wrote, just reminded me that my readers may be wondering where V-Day picks numbers 1-4 are… Excellent question! You can find my 2009 picks by clicking the “LOVE” label at the bottom of this post.

I’m a big fan of
Up Up Creative’s designs. I purchased one of their modern
printable recipe cards last month and it was a such a hit! There’s a series of eight in this vein and they’re all nothing short of awesome. These cards passed my personal “laugh out loud” test. You know you want read the rest, check them out
here.

Maybe it’s the crazy dog lady coming out in me, but I can’t help but swoon over a sweet canine card. Pearl & Marmalade have scored extra points in naming this design ‘Rawhide Regards’.

Ghost Academy has an incredible selection of love cards. This card in particular absolutely takes the cake. It’s precisely the card I’d like to receive on Valentine’s day.

Another favorite, the distinctive designs of Red Cap Cards. If you haven’t visited their website yet you must absolutely do so, now. It’s okay, I’ll wait…
Totally worth it, right? It’s on my top five list of coolest websites on the planet.

February 9, 2009 / laser cut paper, love, rob ryan
I think this is one of the sweetest sentiments, combined with the medium I can’t imagine a more perfect love card. Artist, Rob Ryan, has a shop in London aptly named Ryantown. I guarantee that it will be on my list of destinations on my next trip to the UK. If you are still on the search for a valentine gift take a gander at his etsy shop.
