We Go Together Like… | Valentines Inspiration
Skip the (overpriced) dozen roses and box of chocolates and do something clever this year for your sweetheart. This doesn’t need to be over-complicated or make it look like you tried too hard. It’s about taking the opportunity in our hectic lives to stop for a minute to show our appreciation and affection for the ones we love – be it a spouse, our parents and grandparents, our besties or our children.
We’ve been inspired by our PaperCuts collection of “We Go Together Like…” cards featuring creative cut art, and wanted to share these fun ideas with you. Pair one of these cards with a few simple items to create a fun Valentine experience.
