Valentine’s Day, the day when you tell the one you love just how much they mean to you. Or, if you’re me, the day you send your other half a a mildly insulting card telling them that you tolerate them. Just.
I’m not particularly a big fan of Valentine’s Day (as you may have guessed), but tradition dictates that if I don’t want my other half to hate me I should really give him a card. Especially since I demand some form of token gift in return – just because I don’t like Valentine’s Day shouldn’t mean I miss out on overpriced flowers (this is in bold just in case my other half bothers to read this blog. You know, just to hammer the point home).
Anyway, if you also like your cards with less schmaltz and added snark, then here are some of the greatest Valentine’s Day cards you can buy, from the best designer makers / illustrators selling online…
This is just one of Mardy Mabel‘s amazingly brutal greetings cards…
Because nobody loves anything as much as Kanye loves Kanye…

It’s funny, because it’s true… (Emily McDowell also has tons more great cards on Etsy too)
Because if you don’t love yourself no one else will…
There is NOTHING sexier than good grammar…
This one may be going a *little* too far…
Well, it doesn’t hurt to keep your options open…
For the geek in your life…For those who prefer to not aim too high…
Because I live in Walthamstow, London, and the Hipsters are coming…
PS. This list does not include ecards because, quite frankly, if all you get is a snarky ecard I give it six months.
