My children love to make their own Valentine's. I don't know if I save money or not. That is not why we do it. Last year I spent a couple of weeks cutting out hearts from construction paper. I gave them stickers, glue and paper along with the hearts and they personalized each card.
This year Anneke wanted "a heart note" and bat signal to give away. I thought of putting a bat symbol in a heart, but of course my husband thought of making a bat symbol in the shape of a heart. He made 4 different versions.
Marcus chose this one:
I made this heart note according to Marcus's specs and Anneke liked it, too.
This is the one Anneke chose:
Quite frankly I liked one they didn't choose. Anyway, they were for our children. It was fun to let them personalize and come up with sayings. Marcus wants to give conversation hearts, too.

I love those! Your cousins, sadly, didn't get to make Valentines this year. Of course, I think I was more upset than them. Happy Valentines Day!
Cool valentines! I used to make them, too, but now I don't have so much energy to help Uncle Munkle make his.
Ah, well. He gave pencil valentines this year! At least they were useful, if not creative!
Cute! Your kids (aka Shirley's grandkids :) have great imaginations.
