As Romantic As It Gets
I love sending Valentine's Day cards! Unfortunately, I am not good with words and I don't want to send a card that just says "Happy Valentine's Day" or "Sending You Hugs and Kisses". So this is what I do. I just type one of my favorite love poems. How can I compete with William Shakespeare, Pablo Neruda and Nazim Hikmet?
You can never underestimate the packaging though so I try to make my cards pretty, using fonts I like, printing on beautiful card stock, sending in bright pink envelopes.
I chose E.E. Cummings' "I carry your heart with me" to print on my cards this year that will go to my valentines. It's my once a year opportunity to share my favorite poems with them besides making sure they know how much I love them and how grateful I am for their existence in my life. Cheers to love!
