woo hoo! are you getting ready for St. Valentine’s Day? i am….already planning what my kiddos are going to wear for their Valentine’s portraits.
Here is another set of Valentine’s Day templates for 2011. You can find last year’s here.
Here is this year’s….please let me know how they work out (i feel like the massive lack of sleep around here has impeded my ability to actually focus). These are set up as layered .psd files with vectors for the text/graphics. You can add your own text layers to personalize these. For how to insert your own photos into a layered psd file, please read my tutorial here.

You can download the file here. Have fun! (the file is a zip folder…you will need winzip to open it) And be sure to spread the LOVE (you can share this on facebook or tweet it!).
Speaking of LOVE, have you signed up for my FREE class The Joy of LOVE yet??? Please join in on the fun this february!
These are sized at 4×5.5 inches (and i used mpixpro’s sizing template).
Be on the lookout this week for a Valentine’s Shot list from me, and other portrait ideas for Valentine’s Day.


























Very cool- thank you! We’ve got a baby girl set to arrive right before Valentine’s Day (hopefully anyway!) so I will be psyched to use these after she’s born for both the kiddies! : )
You are so generous. Thank you very much!
Thanks so much! Can’t wait for the class to start!
I’ve never sent photo valentine’s but I will be now! Thanks so much!
you totally should sent out the photo ones…i LOVE doing this! (although my son doesn’t want his face on his school valentines!!!)
Since I failed at sending christmas cards, maybe a v-day card would make up for it. I actually took a cute pic of my boys the other day that I think could work. Thank you for being a constant breath of creativity and inspiration.
Following you and signed up for your Love class. So excited!
AH these are lovely:) Thank you for sharing!!! I am so excited for your class and will have to blog about it soon!!! I have to mention again:) So glad you are blogging more again. Makes my morning blog roll.
These are SOOO awesome. I can’t wait to send out these in my daughter’s handmade Valentines. I also can’t wait for your class- I’m so excited for it.
Woo Hoo! Thank you. The kids (3 yr old and 4 year old) pass out picture Valentines every year. This is a great template. Can’t wait to use them.
Thanks so much. They are beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your talent with us! Nice work!!!
Thank you Thank you Thank you! This is AWESOME! I spent the whole day putting together samples with my photos in these templates and the ones from 2010. Here’s to generating business for 2011!
Thank you for your utmost generosity!!!! Love all that you do! Have a Happy Valentine’s Day. Looking forward to working with you. Sarah
BEAUTIFUL…thanks so much for sharing these!
You are so sweet for sharing. Thank you.
I have just found your site and it is terrific! I love that you share all of your wonderful tips, tricks, and templates! I love these templates and these are alot of help for me to use in the future! Thanks again!
Are these templates for Photoshop? Just wondering. I don’t use photoshop – I think it’s SO SO SO confusing and I have yet to find someone willing to teach me!
hey there! yes, these are for photoshop or elements. have you taken any online photoshop/elements classes? i think jessica sprague may teach some.
Thank you so much! They are beautiful!
Can’t quite get templates to work out yet… this for use with PSE8? I hope so, these are adorable! Just what I’ve been looking for!
yes, you can use them in PSE. are you working on the psd files?
I am going to do this! Thanks so much! But…do I have to order them thru mpixpro? Is there another way/place? I am not a pro and don’t have an account thru mpixpro. Any suggestions? Thanks!
PS…I joined the The Joy of Love class…can’t wait!
hey carleen! you can print them anywhere that does flat cards (mpix, shutterfly, etc.). just make sure to check the sizes.
Thanks tons! They are really cute!
thank you so much!!! they’re adorable!
Thank you!!
