Valentine’s Day is a lovely opportunity to express your gratitude to your Valentine, friends, and family.
Most Valentine’s Day cards come with a printed verse in them. You can write your message on the other side (if it is a folded card) or above or below the printed verse.
If you are looking for how to write a thank-you note for Valentine’s Day gifts, read this post or this one to thank someone for Valentine’s day flowers.
Why Should You Include a Thank You Message in Your Valentine’s Day Card?
♥ Adding “I love you” is easy and expected. Adding gratitude will be a lovely surprise.
♥ If you are giving a card to someone whose love language is “words of affirmation”, including a thank you message is perfect for them!
♥ Flowers are expensive on Valentine’s Day. Your words are free and much more valuable. I am not saying that you shouldn’t give flowers. I am suggesting that your words of thanks could be more meaningful than the flowers!
♥ When sending to a friend, it’s a chance to let them know that you are glad they are in your life.
♥ How often do people tell their friends that their friendship is appreciated?
♥ If you are sending out Valentine’s postcards, adding a thank you is a way to say something along with Happy Valentine’s Day.

♥ Thank you for all the ways you love me. You could also choose to be specific and name something that makes you feel loved.
♥ I love that you love me! Thank you for putting up with me when I’m crabby, which can happen when I’m overtired.
♥ I look forward to our date nights when it’s just the two of us! Thank you for supporting the family so that I can stay home with the children.
♥ Thank you for showing me how much you love me. I appreciate things that appear to go unnoticed, like packing my lunch and having a meal ready when I come home from work.
♥ Thank you for supporting my new ideas.
♥ Thank you for being committed to date nights throughout the year. I love you.
♥ I am grateful that we are married and love spending time with you. Thank you for being my best friend.
Think about your relationship. Pick something that will be meaningful to your husband, wife, partner, boyfriend, girlfriend, etc. Looking at examples is fine to get an idea. For best results choose something that fits your relationship.

Valentine Messages for Your Coworkers or Boss
It could be fun to pass on classroom Valentine’s at work!
If you are only giving a Valentine to your boss, you may be viewed as sucking up, so considered giving everyone on the team a valentine. Compliments are usually appreciated!
Again, like any thank you message, your thank you will depend on what kind of relationship you have with the person. “Happy Valentine’s Day” can be added to the end of any of these messages to make it feel like a Valentine’s Day message.
♥ Thank you for making our team great!
♥ I’m thankful that we are on the same team.
♥ I am grateful that we’ve become friends while working together.
♥ If you’ve finished a big project with their help – Thank you for helping me with the big project (replace “big” with the name of the project).
♥ You’re a wonderful boss! Thanks for bringing in the treats for Valentine’s Day.

Thank you for sharing these great Valentine’s Day “thank you” expressions! You are such a thankful young woman and I appreciate your blog and all the ways you find to say thank you to others around you!
I actually spent last Friday (while at a scrapbooking retreat that ran through Sun. evening) making Valentine’s Day cards for the ladies in the FMF Snail Mail group…oopps! Hope they don’t read this!!! It doesn’t take a lot of time to make them; and I usually leave them blank so I can just write something inside.
I have soooooo many cards now and will be setting them up to “sell” for donations for a fund-raising scrapbook (and other crafts) retreat I’ll be attending in May. I am going to write one of my posts on the organization that sponsors it and share in that way.
Always enjoy reading your blog!
Thanks Barbara!
