Cards and Gifts for your Valentine

Can you believe, it's almost Valentine's Day again? 

Love it or hate it, there's no ignoring it.  Craft stores (Hobby Lobby, I'm talking about YOU) are filled with Valentine's themed items almost before the last of the Christmas turkey leftovers have been eaten.

So as we are now safely in January, I don't feel so bad posting some links to Valentine's related cards and gifts on Zazzle.

A few years ago I created a Valentine's card featuring these cute cartoon horses floating on a cloud of love hearts. It's been one of my most popular designs and this year, I decided to add this fridge magnet with the same design.

My second most popular Valentine's card design is this one. It's customizable, making it suitable for anyone to send.  You can change it to "to my husband" or "to our son" or add a name if you wish.



I'm a bit of a geek for soft, cuddly things (I have an embarrassingly large collection of stuffed animals at home).  So it's not surprising that I adore these cute little teddy bears with the customizable shirts available at  Zazzle.   The bears are available in three different sizes and the eyes and facial features are embroidered, so they are safe even for the smallest baby. Look at this cute little guy - don't you just want to hug him?

If your Valentine has a sweet tooth, why not tempt him or her with a jar of jelly beans? This one features a cute array of doodled love hearts in shades of pink can be filled with your choice of candy, from mints to pina colada Jelly Belly™candies.

The doodled love heart design is rather popular and is available on other items too, such as this mug. The design displays on both sides of the mug, so whether you are left or right handed, you can see the loving message.



As some of you may know, I create a lot of my designs in the 3D graphics program, DAZ 3D (hence the name of my blog and my original store - 3D Designs by Jayne).

The last of my items I am sharing here today is this nesting Lovers' Mug set featuring my 3D digital artwork "A Night on the Town",  I often get asked if it's a photograph, but it's not, it was created from scratch on my computer in DAZ 3D and then rendered and saved to a file format that can be printed or uploaded for use on sites like Zazzle.

The designers on Zazzle have certainly been busy creating Valentine's related designs.  I will share a few with you here.

This T-Shirt was an Editor's Pick when I was browsing through the site today.  I had to giggle a bit because I wondered what the ratio of customers is -- in other words how many women buy this shirt and give it to their husband for him to wear, versus how many men actually buy it for themselves?

 Perhaps I should get this one for myself?

Both the men's and women's T-shirts are available in a variety of styles, colors and fabrics, so you can always find exactly what you are looking for.

Moving on to cards - I like this one featuring  a patchwork of watercolor love hearts.  The pale green background complements the pink hearts perfectly.


This card is a win-win for me. I love cats (we have a house full of them) and I love the soft color and the puffy hearts.

Vintage, or retro designs are very popular with designers on Zazzle and this one, with a Victorian style  featuring Cupid and red roses is particularly attractive.

Gifts and Cards for your Valentine

Now we have officially got "the Holidays" out of the way, I've been adding some Valentine's related items to my Zazzle store.

My favorite new item has been this Couples Mug or Lovers' mug set, featuring a new digital artwork I created in DAZ3D that I titled "Night on the Town."  I was able to split the original artwork so that the man is on one mug, and the woman is on the other. 

I only discovered recently that it is now possible to add chocolates to Zazzle mugs, turning them into a perfect gift!



I designed a number of sweet cards, including this puffy pink heart on a pale pink background with "To my Wife on Valentine's Day" greeting which is sure to be appreciated. 




I really love the vintage appeal of this vintage illustration Victorian Happy Valentine's Day holiday floral design featuring traditional love and romance flowers. Antique ephemera with a beautiful bouquet of blooming crimson red roses in a gold basket just picked from the garden. Designed by Yesterday Cafe.


This box of delicious Belgian chocolates features a beautiful "Sea of Hearts" design by ZazzleHolidays, and you can customize it with the recipient's name or a message.

These t-shirts are great, and will certainly make a statement when you head out together but I have to say it..... aren't they the wrong way round? Shouldn't HIS t-shirt say "SHE is my better half" and shouldn't HER t-shirt say "HE is my other half"?

Just kidding - I love them!




****

Not quite ready to commit to a long term relationship yet? No problem - there are lots of designs to let you tell it like it is.

Just want to give him or her a card? There's an endless choice, like this vintage cupid and pink roses design by Sandyspider.

Or perhaps this cute kitten -- with a demand for chocolate inside. (after all what else is Valentine's Day for?)


I could go on, but it's your turn now:

Join the Party!
