Try out these ideas for presenting your Valentine's Day gifts to your sweetheart, friends, or family members.

  • Hide his or her valentine somewhere in the morning-under a pillow, his cup of coffee, her newspaper, or by the dog's leash.
  • Add excitement to the day by using a series of digital photos as part of a fun Valentine's Day scavenger hunt that leads to your big gift or valentine.
  • Slip a pocket photo book or photo card into your son's or daughter's lunch box or clothes drawer.
  • Show up at your valentine's work for a surprise romantic sneak attack; bring lunch along with the gift you've created!
  • Present your valentine with a photo album that only has a couple of pages of photos in it, and tell them that the rest of the space is for the good times that are yet to come.
