How do I make a class set of football valentines?
Type the child’s name, pick the pun, pick the cards-per-sheet, download. Every card on the sheet is finished: the heart-football motif at the top, the pun in the middle, the From line printed with the name. No writing twenty-four of them by hand the night before the class party, unless the child wants to add a flourish.
| Cards per sheet | Card size on A4 | Card size on US Letter |
|---|---|---|
| 24 (4 × 6) | 43.75 × 41.33 mm | 45.23 × 38.4 mm |
| 12 (3 × 4) | 60 × 64.5 mm | 61.97 × 60.1 mm |
| 8 (2 × 4) | 92.5 × 64.5 mm | 95.45 × 60.1 mm |
Cut on the solid rose borders. The sheet footer keeps the tool’s address off the cards themselves: the class sees valentines, not a website.
Which pun should we pick?
Eight, all football, all Valentine’s: You’re a catch! I’m your biggest fan. You’re my MVP. You’ve got my heart on the run. First pick: you. Huddle up, valentine. You’re the whole playbook. You make my heart score. For a class trade where cards travel between twenty-odd kids, the short ones (You’re a catch!, You’re my MVP, First pick: you) read fastest in a fistful of paper.
One set is one pun on purpose: the typed From line is the part nobody wants to write 24 times, and the pun is one select-box click away from being different on the next sheet.
Why a typed set instead of a printable to hand-sign?
The football-valentine shelf elsewhere is static: download the PDF, print, and sign or handwrite every card (checked 5 October 2026). For a kid who cannot write comfortably yet, or a parent at 21:00 the night before the class party, the typing is the whole favour. The name prints once into every From line, and the child’s job shrinks to cutting and handing out. Signing space stays on the bigger cards for the kids who want it.
When do class valentines collide with the game?
In 2027, directly: schools exchange cards on or near Friday 12 February, and the Super Bowl lands two days later on Valentine’s Day itself, Sunday 14 February 2027, SoFi Stadium (the league’s calendar, checked 5 October 2026). Print the class set in late January, and the squares board handles the Sunday. The Super Bowl Valentine hub holds the whole plan, and the guide Super Bowl on Valentine’s Day 2027: how to plan for both walks the weekend end to end.
Before you print
One test sheet at 100 percent (not fit-to-page), then the stack. Plain paper cuts cleaner than card stock on the small cards; the 8-up set stands up to card stock if the cards will be propped on desks.
Questions
How many valentines print on a sheet?
24 small cards, 12 mid-size or 8 big ones, one sheet each. A class of 24 needs one sheet at 24-up, two at 12-up or three at 8-up, and the stats line above does that arithmetic for you.
What size are the cards?
True size at 100 percent scale. On A4 the 24-up cards are 43.75 × 41.33 mm, the 12-up cards 60 × 64.5 mm and the 8-up cards 92.5 × 64.5 mm; US Letter cards are cut a touch narrower. Do not use fit-to-page.
Does every card say the same thing?
Yes: one child's set is one pun and one From line, printed 8, 12 or 24 times. Kids who want variety pick a pun per sheet and print a second sheet; the paper is the only cost.
Can the child still sign the cards?
The From line prints the typed name, and there is white space under it on the 8-up and 12-up cards for a handwritten flourish if the child wants one. The 24-up cards are small and stay as printed.
Do they print in black and white?
Yes. The heart-football and the cut lines print in a rose color that reads fine in grey, and the text is dark on white, so a school printer loses nothing that matters.
Is anything uploaded from this page?
No. The name, the pun and the PDF are all built inside your browser, and no request carries anything you typed. Closing the tab erases everything.
