To get you started, think about describing how it feels to be with that person, what goes through your mind when you see him or her. Their laughter, smile, touch, your intentions, commitment, gratitude… Use your special nickname, compliment on the recipients’ best and unique qualities. Be specific. Paying attention to small details show how well you know him/her or how much you appreciate them.
Choose words that sound like you and when in doubt, keep it simple.
Humour is definitely also an option, especially if you haven’t known each other that long.
And last but not least, put some time and effort into it and make sure you are happy with your final draft before writing it on the card.
Here are some phrases and quotes you can combine with your personalized message:
You brighten up my day every time I see you
To the color of my life
You are my love, my heart, my joy
There’s no place I’d rather be than by your side
You fill my life with love and joy
Miles apart, but always in my heart.
The sweetest moments are those spent with you
With you, it feels like coming home
You are the one I want to walk with through life, hand in hand
Thanks for all you do that makes my life happier
I am so lucky to have you in my life
You take my breath away, always
My love for you can move mountains

Loving you is the closest thing there is to heaven
Being with you makes me want to be the best version of me I can be/You make me want to be my best version
You are all I can ever wish for and more
