This Valentine’s Day, Be a little Different

Valentine’s Day is the day of celebration of love. Everywhere everything seems to be covered with red and pink - it’s as if you have donned a pair of rosy red spectacles in literal sense. Lots of time you’ll come across people who just get tired of this ‘pinky-ness’. And let’s accept it - monotonous color combinations, ways of greeting and celebrating can be a little boring. So how about being a little different? And what could be a better start other than way of greeting? A little different eCards/cards/messages?

Instead of “lovey-dovey” messages, try some cool funny messages - simple and may be expressing some stupid incidence you’ve experienced with your Valentine. Even better, mention something rather funny (many problems are painful when you’re going through them, but funny when thought about in the retrospect) which happened to you when they were not around. It’s like telling someone how much s/he means to you without the heavy emotional overdose, but it’s still very effective, since it rings with practicality and truth.

Or may be you would like to pick up some nice eCards from the millions available online with cartoons expressing something hilarious. But make sure the humor is within the tolerable limit of the specific person you are trying to make smile.

The typical color combinations of red, pink, yellow etc. are going to be around always. But there are many other color themes which could bring an interesting new effect and make your card look different. Along with the different colors, you could use quotations mentioning elements of Valentine’s Day (hearts, roses etc.) from a different perspective.

For e.g., check the video card below. It uses colorless sketches of roses with deep blue background. (Click here to send it as Valentine eCard.)

So you could try many things, thinking out of the box, but be careful, this experimental lab might involve a lot of test tubes coughing fire and smoke. And since chemicals involved are emotional in nature - be extra careful. Try to test the water so that you don’t appear with a regular pizza when a candle light dinner is expected.

Have a great Valentine’s Day.
