So, if you haven’t made cards, and you haven’t picked out any to buy, you are seriously running out of time folks. There aren’t that many wacky Valentine’s Day cards out there – and even less architect based valentines, however, you can still score some unique cards vs. the typical blah hearts blah love deal.
The card above is actually part of a postcard set; oh! my god! i miss you by yoshitomo nara. BUT I love the title card; it’s one of my fave postcards. Nara’s art is all fun, but the OMG postcard is such a nice way to say I love you that I had to share. Especially good if your Valentine is far, far away.
Be the person who sends the world’s longest card ever with Fairy Tail greeting cards by Tord Boontje and Artecnica. Genius.
Nothing says a unique I love you like shooting someone’s brains out. Only if they’re already a zombie though. Guns + real humans = not cool. See more at Tina Seamonster.
This card is unique as in you’ll be spending a unique Valentine’s Day alone if you send it. Actually, I think it’s funny, but I’ve had mates who might disagree – send carefully to the right person. See more fun at Be My Anti Valentine.
Pick up a single love note made of eco-friendly sustainably-harvested yellow birch from Night Owl Paper Goods. These are semi-traditional, and not so offbeat in text, but a card made of wood is too cool to pass up. Plus, right now if you spend $40 you get a free reusable tote too! Cards shown above include:

Love the Fairy Tail cards.
Too bad. I’ll be sending you the zombie one
What are you gonna do about it?
hmm, bet you don’t even have my new address.
