There's Nothing Artificial About This Valentine

Splenda may be artificial, but this sweet card is entirely genuine! It’s also a great way to go, if you’re the type to try and avoid the overly saccharine - a little pun here and there  is always a great solution for those who want to say they care, but can’t quite help but make a joke of it.

This card can be created for about $2, or if you’re like us and have a bunch of random sugar and Splenda packets lying around from those early morning coffee runs - even less. A thoughtful gift that doesn’t cost a bundle? We think that’s Splenda, too!
