Valentine's day: You either love it or hate it. Many like the idea of Valentine's Day but hate the costs associated with it. It's easy to go over budget without realizing it. But, there are ways to give something special to your partner, friend or family member inexpensively, too.

With these DIY ideas, you'll be able to give gifts and cards to your loved ones at little to no cost.
The price tag isn't everything though; your thoughtful messages inside will show how much you care.

It also helps when your gifts are chic, too! You can opt for a simple card, which can be made without causing too many paper cuts.
