These FREE race car Valentine’s Day cards are perfect for any school party! Just add a toy car for a fun and inexpensive non-candy Valentine greeting!
My son had his very first school Valentine’s Day party yesterday, and Momma here was definitely way more excited about it than he was! I mean, he’s only two, so he doesn’t get too excited about anything other than Blaze & the Monster Machines, M&M’s, garbage trucks, and puppy dogs.
I, on the other hand, couldn’t WAIT to make the little Valentine cards for him to pass out to his classmates and teachers! Just another excuse to get my craft on.
Since Rowan is all boy and totally obsessed with all things transportation, I decided it would be more than appropriate for him to pass out some toy race cars with several oh so punny sayings.
After scouring Pinterest and Google for ideas, I whipped up these bad boys in no time….and you can snag the FREE printable if you’d like your little lad or lady to use them for their Valentine cards too!
Race Car Valentine’s Day Cards with Free Printable
Supplies
- FREE printable with four different styles (find it below!)
- Matte photo paper or card stock
- Printer
- Scissors or paper trimmer
- Toy race cars (Hot Wheels, Matchbox, off-brand from dollar store, etc.)
- Decorative red washi tape
The Easy How-To:
These cards come in four different puntacular sayings:
- I wheelie like you.
- You rev my engine.
- You make my heart race.
- I like how you roll.
I printed them out four per 8.5″ x 11″ sheet of matte photo paper, but you could also use card stock if you wanted them to be extra sturdy. My paper trimmer worked perfectly to cut them out to size.
The cars are from Dollar Tree….and they came three to a pack! So I got twelve cars for only $4. Score! Lastly, to attach the cars to the cards, I just used a small strip of some decorative red washi tape across the top. Couldn’t be easier!
The Race Car Valentine’s Day Cards!
I just think these cards turned out so adorable! And they were super simple to put together, too. Ya can’t beat that!

Your child can simply sign their name, attach the cars, then pass out to their friends! Enjoy!
(If you’d like to type your greeting and/or kiddo’s name in the same font I used, it’s called Dance Club and you can find it here.)

These are so neat! My 5 year old and I love them.
I am having difficulty downloading the graphics though. I clicked on your download graphic, and then I see the pdf and jpeg but I dont see any option to download past that. If I click on each image it just gets a little bigger. Im not the most tech savy, so I’m probably doing something wrong.
Christine says
Hi Jessica! I just checked the download folder, and it looks like Dropbox has changed the settings a bit. I am able to download (on a Mac) by either clicking on ‘Open’ in the upper right corner then choosing ‘Open in Preview’ or ‘Show in Finder’, or by hovering over one of the enlarged files and clicking the small printer on the bottom (then once the PDF opens up in a new tab, there is a Download option…the downward-pointing arrow). There used to be a large blue ‘Download’ box on the top right, but I guess they’ve decided to complicate things, LOL. I’m not sure what exactly it looks like on Windows. Hope this helps!

This is SO cute and my car-obsessed son is super excited to make them. He lovingly picked cars for each kid in his class and can’t wait to put them together. Thanks for this adorable card!
Christine says
Yay, Erica! That makes me so happy to hear. My younger son is passing them out to his preschool class this year and he is so excited as well. :)
Michelle says
I am having trouble finding the link to download JPG. Can you send it to me? mmanifesto14@gmail.com. Thanks ;)
Christine says
Both files are in the download folder. Just click on the ‘awesomeness ahead. DOWNLOAD right here’ graphic. :)
Kristie says
Would you be able to e-mail the printable form with no “Valentine” at the top, so we could write in the persons name that the valentine is for?
Christine says
Just uploaded a new greeting-free version to the download folder! Thanks for the suggestion! :)
Margaret Harrison says
