Celebrated all over the world, Valentine's Day has been around for hundreds of years and is the one night of the year when restaurants, bars and hotels of all styles seem to be taken over by happy couples celebrating their together-ness. However, Valentine's Day is by no means only for couples and in fact offers an ideal opportunity for singletons to make their move and reveal their feelings for someone special. Whether it is a cute colleague, a handsome classmate or a close friend that you want to become something more, Valentine's Day is the one time of the year that you can be bold and tell them how you feel in a fun and flirty way.

It is often so much easier to express your feelings in words than doing so face-to-face, particularly if the object of your affection is someone you see on a regular basis. The fear of rejection can be overwhelming, causing so many of us to keep quiet about our feelings. It is common to feel some anxiety when approaching someone we are keen on because we know that if they are not interested we might be a little embarrassed around them afterwards. But life is too short to worry about being turned down and it is far better to be brave and make your move, even if things don't work out, than to spend your days wondering what might have been. Most people will be flattered by any proposition and, even if they do not feel the same way, will respect your openness. Most of us are perfectly well aware of this but when it comes down to it, walking up to someone you have feelings for and unashamedly asking them on a date is a scary prospect. That's exactly why Valentine's Day is an opportunity not to be missed as it gives you the licence to approach your sweetheart and tell them how you feel, without the pressure of a face-to-face meeting. Valentine's Day cards are a great way to reveal a little of your personality and have some fun in totally a non-threatening way. So if there is someone you have your eye on, be creative and send them a Valentine's card they will not forget.

Although anonymous Valentine's Day Cards are a popular way to send your love while maintaining some protection against potential rebuff, remember that you do want the recipient to be able to figure out who sent the card. After all, if they never know where it came from, the chances of a relationship developing as a result are non-existent. Be imaginative and personalise your Valentine's Day cards to suit the object of your affections and try to compose a message that is light-hearted and fun while still leaving no doubt about your feelings. The trick is to not to take yourself too seriously. Imagine yourself on a date with the person in question and picture the two of you sharing a joke. Whatever it is that makes the two of you smile in your imagination will give you a clue as to the right Valentine's card to send.

If flirty fun is your thing, get your feelings across with a provocative Valentine's Day Cards and enclose a saucy verse or message. The recipient cannot fail to be impressed with your boldness and will be blown away that you have put such effort into attracting them. If the feelings are mutual then your sexy card might be exactly what he or she needed to finally have the courage to ask you out. Or perhaps your card will make the object of your affections see you in a whole new light and, even if they hadn't considered a relationship before, your daring approach could be exactly what it takes to persuade them of your compatibility.

If you want to send Valentine's Day Cards with naughty images but don't know the recipient very well, try to go for sexy chic and avoid anything that could potentially be offensive. Your message should be flirty but leave something to the imagination; don't be too explicit. If you are hoping to woo a man, appeal to his secret fantasies and choose a foxy French maid card. You can really get him hot under the collar by personalising it with his name spelt out in the lace of her black fishnet stockings. Alternatively, you might choose an image of a steamy shower scene. This trim, toned male torso can include the name of your beloved in soap suds across his chest. The old saying that a picture speaks a thousand words is absolutely true and a strong image such as these can say so much more than you can in words. With naughty but nice Valentine's Day cards like these you can keep the message inside short and sweet. Even a simple 'thinking of you', when combined with a sexy image will leave the recipient in no doubt about your feelings. So be creative, have some fun and if you play your (Valentine's) cards right, you might just end up capturing the heart of the man or woman of your dreams.
