As part of Skype’s effort to expand on the popularity of last year’s holiday-cards, you can now send a love-inspired video card to your loved ones this Valentine’s Day. Similar to the holiday cards last year that ended up being a huge hit, the Valentine cards allow you to record a special holiday-themed message and add filters over the top of the video. You can then send the video to anyone you choose as well as any way you want. For instance, you can save the video to your phone and share it through other services or as a Skype message.
