A handwritten Valentine’s card speaks straight from the heart. Unlike printed templates, a card written in real pen and ink feels intimate and genuine, showing that you care enough to make it personal. Whether for a partner, a friend, or a family member, a handwritten message carries the warmth and thoughtfulness this special day deserves.
Target sending your card 2-5 days before February 14th to ensure it arrives on time and adds to the romantic surprise.
