one time I made my boyfriend a huge card out of poster board folded in half and filled it with cool fonts and cut out magazine and real life pics of us and lined it with glitter and lipstick kisses. He loved it. That's something he'll save forever. Makes a great v-day, anniversary, or just a great surprise "I love you" gift. *include a cute "love ticket" inside, like for a free massage given by you or something like that :) (Dani)

Buy her/him a card when you're away with a picture of human heart, reading, "My heart is gone without you."

Buy a box of the kids Valentines cards and a bunch of Hershey's Kisses and starting on Feb 1, give him a card a day surrounded by the kisses - BUT, leave them in inconspicuous places, i.e., in his underwear drawer or sock drawer, in his toolbox, etc. Then make your own special card (large enough to cover the front of your body) for the big day. (Gena)

While your lover is sleeping- place Hershey's kisses along the stairs leading to the bathroom, and fill their shower with rose petals. Leave a note that says, "Since I've kissed the ground you've walked on and showered you with roses, will you be my Valentine?"

Send a card with rose petals and spray your cologne on it so they will think of you when they open it.
