If your making it for your partner only you know them best!If your making it for someone else you only know of them and who they are... Keeping that in mind I'm sure you'll come up with homemade anniversary cards and verses for all sorts of occasions.

The great thing about an anniversary is that it can be anything... It can be made for all sorts of different dates.It doesn't have to be date of marriage or anything like that. For instance it could be after a 6 month period instead of a year.

I always like to celebrate the day we first hooked up as our official anniversary and including little dates like remember today was the first day we moved into our new home? I love my partner and I like to see everyday as an anniversary because it is a new day spent together!

Think of where you'd be without one another?

Don't feel confined to brainstorming all these card ideas just for weddings, there are other dates that make it special dates that are meaningful. After all it would not be meaningful if we didn't want to relive those special moments!

Here are some anniversary inspirations for your anniversary cards:

1. Use, Remember when we...

* first time you made love

* First photo together

* A first dinner

* If you knew each other before?

* A first trip

* First movie

* Something funny

you could incorporate it on the front of your anniversary cards with the date in decorative fonts and write these, remember when or it's the little things about you..., in the inside of your cards...

For example: I love to use the beach, where we first met! you can use beach shells and sand with footprints or holding hands...or draw a heart in the sand and take a photo of it!

For other couples or parents anniversaries emphasize...

How to Make Chinese Valentine's Cards

By BlueGaia

Qi Qiao Jie (Chinese Valentine's Day)

While Chinese Valentine's Day Qi Qiao Jie, is for lovers, the day is characterized by Chinese legend and culture. Celebrating on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month of the Chinese calendar (August), Chinese go to the temple of the Matchmaker to pray for romantic good fortune. It is not traditional to give Chinese Valentine's cards. But the practice has incorporated the Western use of cards, which are adorned with images and language that brings to mind traditional Qi Qiao Jie symbols.

Instructions

Making Chinese Valentine's Cards

Step 1

Make a Chinese Valentine's card that cites "Fairy of the Magpie Bridge." Immortalized by Chinese poet Qin Guan, this Song Dynasty (960 to 1279) poem symbolizes love that will never die. It is said that no magpies fly on Qi Qiao Jie. The birds all fly to the bridge where two legendary lovers met.

Step 2

Include an image of two lovers meeting on Magpie Bridge beneath grapevines. Write a few brief lines that imagine what the two Chinese lovers murmured to one another. Refer to your eternal joining in the heavens.

Step 3

Portray you and your love as the lovers Zhi Nu and Niu Lang. Add an adorned ox's horn to memorialize poor cowherd Niu Lang's only earthly possession.

Step 4

Give your love a card that displays two stars Alshain and Tarazed, who are the two lovers, together forever in the heavens. Include incense to bring to the Temple of the Matchmaker.
