valentine's day cards for boys

Valentine's Day is fast approaching and I just started thinking about how to treat my boyfriend. He seems to appreciate it most when I place a tin of home baking in front of him. He bought me a baking book for Christmas so I'll take that as a hint. Now, finding the perfect card is not so easy. Having been together for a good few years now (and with knowing each other far longer than that) I feel like I've exhausted all the good cards, you know? When I discovered these chic black and white cards by Paper Society Co. (via The Sweetest Occasion) I instantly thought they were perfect, especially for boys. Love.

  2. These are so original, I love them! I always struggle to pick my boyfriend a card as we've been together for 9 years this year...scary. Will definitely be giving this website a look in.

  3. Aww, those are really nice. Not too mushy either. My boy and I will be celebrating our first Valentines together, and we've not been together very long, so all the super gushy cards just don't work for me. These are lovely though, just the right tone, and very classy looking.

  4. Oh, I love these. I decided to go with something similar last year made a card with a b&w illustration in the same vein! L x

  5. aww love these, especially the last one. i agree getting a card for a guy is a toughie, the whole card decorating thing is quite a girly concept and i always end up with a neither here nor there design when i try to make one myself. these seem perfect - cute, simple and not too girly!

  6. These are lovely and some beautiful typography - I think I might still cringe if I got the final ones though haha!

  7. These are really nice because they're personal without being too soppy! I like the second and third ones best.

  16. Very smooth! I agree that these could be used any day, not just for Valentine's Day, although they work nicely for that as well. I'm not sure which one I think is the most stylish between the second and third. Those to are my favorites!
