Expressing your feelings on a Valentine can cause some anxiety. The decision to go cheeky or sappy can prove difficult especially in the early stages of a relationship. Now I won't presume to tell you which type of Valentine is best, this isn't a relationship column after all. But I can let you in on an Etsy shop that carries both.
Alisson Burda, owner of the Etsy store Artsy Fartsy, designs handmade mixed media artwork that she uses on a variety of mediums including cards, prints, and tote bags. Vintage photographs are used in each piece, creating a quirky and lighthearted feel.
Burda has several Valentine's Day greeting cards that are definitely not your average fare. Their messages range from a card expressing feelings of romance over the smell of garlic to more sentimental expressions of love.
