We were searching for Valentine's Day card ideas and came across this cute Clifford online Valentine's Day card creator at the Scholastic website.

You get to create your own Clifford Valentine's Day card online and then print it out on your computer printer.

You'll start by selecting a colored card or plain card for your children to color after it has been printed. The you will select your choice of the cover of your card. Next, you get a choice of what you want the inside of your card to look like.

After selecting the inside of the card , you will get to type in your own personalized Valentine's Day message.

When finished, you can hit the print button to send the card to your computer printer. There are also directions listed for folding your card after it is printed.
