With Valentine’s Day around the corner I am always at a loss as to how to celebrate it. Having a tight budget and a young family makes it hard to exchange gifts or even go out to dinner some years. One of the simplest yet most effective Valentine’s Day gifts is a card with a love note or uplifting message.
I had a co-worker that told me her and her husband decided that instead of spending money they didn’t have on Valentine’s Day they each picked out a nice Valentine’s Day card once and just exchange the same card every year with a new note on a separate piece of paper inside it. What a brilliant idea! Just think if you faithfully wrote a yearly note and saved it in the card. Over time wouldn’t it be so cool to get lots of love notes from over the years?
It always feels good to receive a hand written love notes or cards. Cards are also the perfect way to express love and appreciation while on a budget. Sometimes with the chaos of life and kids it is hard to make a handmade Valentine’s Day card. In an attempt to try to make Valentine’s Day easier for myself I designed these free printable Valentine’s Day cards!
How They Work
These cards can be easily printed a home or at a print shop like Kinkos (Fedex) or Staples if you want a higher quality print. Printing them on card-stock paper would make them feel a little sturdier and feel more like an actual card, but any paper will work. These Valentine’s Day Cards are designed to not take up too much ink, but still look cute and thoughtful. The cards are in 3 separate PDF files. After these cards are printed and folded they are a 5×7 card.
Card #1 & #2 are basic 5×7 cards. Once they are cut out, fold them in half and they are ready to use.
Card #3 is a tri-fold card. It will take a little bit more effort to make, but turns out super cute! Using the guide marks on the margins of the card fold the two sides into the middle of the card. Once the card is cut out fold the 2 sides into the middle. A second page of hearts is provided. Cut out the hearts and glue them along the right side of the outside of the card.
Downloading the cards is easy! After filling out your name and email an email will be sent to the address provided with a link to your FREE printable Valentine’s Day cards!

Hello! Welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by!
I am Jaci Steffan. I am a graphic designer, web designer, wife, mom and homemaker. Steffan Design provides insights on a variety of topics from graphic and web design tips and tricks to bits and pieces of everyday life.
Design
After graduating from high school I developed a passion and love for graphic and web design. I attended Dixie State College and earned a degree in Information Technology with a Visual Technologies emphasis (basically a graphic and web design degree). Since starting my design journey I have contributed my design skills to a variety of realms including religious, government, small business, start-ups, and contract jobs.
Design encompasses a large variety of mediums including logos and branding, package design, brochure, marketing design, and web design. I enjoy the variety that comes from this broad field. I have recently opened an etsy shop (Steffan Design) in hopes of providing affordable quality designs for decor projects. It has been a fun adventure so far! I have learned a lot and am excited to continue providing customers with quality designs.
Homemaking
Homemaking isn’t something I have always had a passion for. After having kids and being a stay-at-home-mom I have gained a desire to improving my kid’s life at home. Our homes should be a sanctuary for our families. They should be the safe zone from the demands and pressures of the outside world. Homemaking is the art of making a house fell like a home. It can be done a variety of ways like adding pictures, home decor, having a home cooked meal ready at dinnertime, and providing a positive uplifting atmosphere for our families.
Mom Life
When people say being a mom is more than a full time job they aren’t kidding! Being a mom can take as much or as little time as we are willing and able to put into it. My kids sure know how to keep me on my toes! Each phase they go through brings new experiences, challenges and joys to my life. Most moms have more experience than I do, but I am happy to share solutions to problems that I have encountered in hopes that it will help someone else in the same shoes I am in.
Recipes
Growing up I didn’t spend much time in the kitchen. While working an internship I temporarily lived with a co-worker and his wife. As a result they showed me that cooking can be simple, fun, and delicious. I have developed a love for freezer meals. They can be a lot of work up front, but they sure do pay off in the long run. So if a recipe works as a freezer meal it is definitely a bonus in my books!
In conclusion, a friend of mine once told me people that think they know a lot about a certain topic usually don’t know very much, and people that know a lot about a topic know there is always more to learn. I am by no means an expert in all of these topics, but I am excited to share what I do know about them. We all have had different life experiences that as a result provide us each with unique perspectives. Please feel free to leave insightful comments on my posts sharing your unique perspectives on these topics. [...]
