I'm a big fan of sending photo Christmas cards to friends and family because I love how personal and customized you can make each year's card. My family has fun with the theme of every annual Christmas card and we try to do something that reflects how we're feeling and what we're up to in that particular year.
Well, that level of personalization is no longer just for Christmas cards. The folks at Shutterfly have designed a myriad of ways for your child to express themselves too with their own classroom Valentine's Day cards! I had the chance to review the wide selection of great colors, layouts and artistic typography available from Shutterfly on all types of Valentine's Day gift ideas.
I can still remember back when I was a kid looking forward to the highly anticipated classroom Valentine's Day party. It was a day celebrated with plenty of candy, gifts and of course, the Valentine's Day cards themselves. Every year, we would make a mailbox or other card receptacle to sit on our desk and then parade around the classroom delivering our cards to our friends and "crushes".
Shutterfly has designed several wonderful ways for your child to delight their friends this year. They have a wide variety of custom photo Valentine's Day cards which are super cute and are perfect for the annual school Valentine's Day party. These personalized cards come in the following sizes: 6x8, 5x7, 4x8, 5x5 and 4x5.
If your child isn't crazy about their face appearing on their Valentine's Day cards, never fear. At Shutterfly, they have an impressive selection of personalized Valentine's Day cards which don't require a picture. I especially liked the following two selections:
Now you won't have to stay up late the night before the big party filling out a ton of valentines with your child's name. Just leave it to Shutterfly and they can easily do that part for you!
Of course, while you're there make sure to check out their photo gallery desktop plaques. These simple yet sophisticated plaques are a great addition to any desk or countertop providing a picture you'll love looking at all year long.
