9 Romantic Cards for Writing the Perfect Love Letter

9 Cute Cards for Pre-Wedding Love Letters

The art of the love letter is often forgotten in this digital age, when a heart-eyed emoji is at the tip of your texting fingers. But, when you really want to make an affectionate statement—whether it is before your wedding, an anniversary, Valentine's Day, or just because—there's nothing that can compare. Johnny Cash wrote them to June Carter Cash, Zelda Fitzgerald wrote them to Scott Fitzgerald, Winston Churchill wrote them to Clementine Churchill and, perhaps most famously, Beethoven wrote them to his mysterious “immortal beloved.” (A swoon-worthy snippet? "Ever thine/Ever mine/Ever ours.") While a sweet text can disappear into the scrolling iMessage ether, a love letter can always be reread and specially stored away.

For these adoring, emotional declarations, you need a card to match the mood as well as your style. From classic to quirky, here are our 11 favorite cards for love letters.
