Overboard in Love? Try This Nautical Valentine’s Day Printable

If you are overboard in love, try using this nautical Valentine's Day printable this year!

If you’re looking for a Valentine’s Day card that’s equal parts cheeky and charming, this nautical-themed printable might just be your match.

 A Movie-Inspired Creative Challenge

On the last (or fourth) Monday of each month, a group of bloggers participate in a #MovieMondayChallenge, hosted by yours truly! We decide on a topic, genre, or specific movie to use for inspiration and everyone gets free reign to create something wonderful!


PSST – I use affiliate links on my website, from Amazon as well as others – this means if you click my links, I may earn a little money at no cost to you! I appreciate your support of my blog, and if you have questions, you can see my disclosure policy here. Thank you!!

This month’s challenge was. . . . “Romance”! Everyone was allowed to choose their own favorite romantic film for this challenge. For myself, I chose a familiar favorite – Overboard.

If you have never seen this 1987 romantic comedy starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, you are doing yourself a HUGE disservice!! Goldie and Kurt are longtime loves and the fact that they were together in real life prior to making this film together makes their antics all the more realistic, hilarious, and tender.

1/12/25 Update - I came back to this post specifically to state how much I love them reunited in the much more recent holiday series, The Christmas Chronicles, on Netflix. 

If you’re unfamiliar with the film here’s the basic premise:

A cruel but beautiful heiress mocks and cheats over a hired carpenter. When she gets amnesia after an accident, he decides to introduce her to regular life by convincing her they’re husband and wife.

As of 2015, they finally watched the movie together even! Check out Goldie’s comments!

Nautical Love with a Touch of Gold

My inspiration from this film was all about boats and gold. I mean, c’mon, GOLDIE HAWN. Plus, if you HAVE seen the movie, then you will likely recall the iconic gold glitter dress she wears at the end of the film. (No spoilers, I promise!)  I couldn’t get that or the entire nautical element out of my head.

The result? A printable Valentine’s Day card that pairs navy tones with a hint of sparkle. Perfect for anyone wanting to add a little Overboard flair to their love notes.

How I Made It

I used PicMonkey to create the card, which, as always, made the design process smooth and fun. If you’re interested in adding some sparkle to your own projects, check out this PicMonkey tutorial on decorating text with glitter effects. It’s easier than you think and adds a professional touch to any design.

 I love the nautical navy color against the glittery gold for this project! Whether you see this movie or not, you may love this look.

Once I printed the card, I dusted off my old Martha Stewart Scoring Board to get those creases just right. This thing is a lifesaver for paper crafts – you can use it to score lines for folding, create envelopes, gift boxes, and more. I’ll admit, I’d forgotten how much I love it—it had been collecting dust in the craft room for ages.

 Lessons Learned (Thanks, Printer)

Of course, no DIY project is complete without a little drama. My printer decided to test my patience with ink errors, head cleaning rituals, and a final warning that it was on its last legs. After a few deep breaths (and several retries), I managed to get my printer basically spit out its best version and I was stuck with it. (I have long since replace that one with this one.)

If your printer gives you trouble, here’s a tip: Try a local print shop or online services like Staples for crisp, professional prints.

Please see this movie if you haven’t already. It is HILARIOUS. And once you do, you’ll understand (and ideally ♥️) my design even more! Even if you are not a film fan, this printable is a sweet, simple way to say “I love you.” The navy-and-gold design feels timeless, and it’s versatile enough to work for partners, friends, or family.
