One white card with image of a black and orange cat, walking on hind legs, putting a red heart into a red mailbox with a blue bird on it. A message on the cover reads "For a Swell SIS On Valentine's Day I could say that you're marvelous". The inside of the card has an image of the same cat holding a red heart with white lace and text that reads "Or wonderful, or sweet, I could say you're a darling, too, Who simply can't be beat," . At the top of the proper right panel the message continues "But I don't want to have you think I'm carrying things too far, So I'll just say you're swell, Sis, 'Cause you betcha you sure are!" Written in black ink "Bee".
