Approximately 1 billion Valentine's Day cards are sent each year.

In order of popularity, Valentine's Day cards are given to: teachers, children, mothers, wives, and sweethearts.

The expression "wearing your heart on your sleeve" comes from a Valentine's Day party tradition. Young women would write their names on slips of paper to be drawn by young men. A man would then wear a woman's name on his sleeve to claim her as his valentine.

If you click on the pictures they get big,and you can print them as V-Day coloring pages.
