Do you have a special someone—boyfriend, girlfriend, best friend—this Valentine’s Day that appreciates a card that is a little more unique than the standard mass-produced fare? Etsy comes to the rescue with handmade cards for all types of relationships. But don’t wait any longer, Saturday is four-and-a-half business days away! We’ve given you a head start by finding some of the best…
Seller aruppel’s limited edition print “I believe there is someone for everyone” is a gorgeous option based on an original painting. Great for a significant other or a single friend in need of some love!
SarahMarieDesigns is a Manhattan-based graphic design studio that offers this flirty original illustration letterpressed on cotton paper.
Lepapierdesigns features a few different designs using elegant silhouette artwork. These are very romantic and very stylish. Check out their custom address labels while you’re there!
linocutboy presents an adventurous option with “a valentine's message for those with excellent personal hygiene.” This London based artist specializes in linocut and etching, and enjoys “the darkly humorous and the downright bizarre.” Double check on timing for international shipping…
New York based boy-girl duo, dangerpants, offers a card with a more vintage appeal sporting a fantastic illustration of a Dodo. Inside, “Don’t go away” serves as a loving, but non-syrupy Valentine’s sentiment. They say they’ll even cater to specific color combination requests…
Finally, this last one deserves a mention, although it has to ship internationally from Australia. Great for a late valentine, or those ambitious individuals preparing for next year!
Ableandgame’s card “You’re all sorts of lovely” features a sweet illustration with a simple sentiment.
Great ideas! I get so much inspiration from Etsy to create my own DIY crafts at home.

Man, it's too late for this, but I so need a "You've made my life better than an ABBA song" card for the bestie. She is the Muriel to my Rhonda and I'm the Rhonda to her Muriel

Instead of a card why not give your loved ones their very own certificates. Scott Common Sense has templates for a variety of certificates and they are free! http://www.scottcommonsense.com/us/toolbox/certificate.asp

If I am the peanut butter to one's jelly, should I be avoided due to possible salmonella contamination?
