How to Use AI to Create a Perfect Valentines Card Inspired by Your Love Song
Valentine’s Day is the perfect opportunity to express your love in the most unique way possible. This year, why not combine the power of AI with Videobolt's templates to create a Valentines card that's as unique as your love story? Join us as we elevate this concept to create a personalized music video featuring your real life photos combined with the AI-generated visuals that draw inspiration from the emotions and the atmosphere of your love song.
Take a look at the stunning Valentine's card we've created! It's a beautiful fusion of music, lyrics, and AI-generated visuals that perfectly match the mood of the song. Our creation in this tutorial has been further personalized with lovely photos from our fictional couple, Anne and John.
Our guide is here to help you use AI to craft a truly unique Valentine's card. It's designed to channel the emotions of your favorite song into a heartfelt and unforgettable gift for your special someone.
Step 1: Pick your perfect love song and find its lyrics
Start by choosing a love song that holds real meaning for you and your partner. It might be the song you first danced to, something you always play together, or simply a track that captures how you feel about each other. This song will set the tone for everything that follows, so don’t overthink it. If it feels right, it probably is.
Once you’ve picked the track, grab the full lyrics. You’ll need them in the next step to help translate the song’s mood and flow into visuals.
For this guide, we’ve chosen “Beggin Again” by King Sis, which you can easily access through the Epidemic Sound integration on Videobolt.
Step 2: Ask ChatGPT to turn the song into visuals
Now comes the fun part. Instead of guessing what kind of visuals might fit your song, you can let AI help you break it down and create visuals that naturally pair with your own photos.
Below, you’ll find a ChatGPT widget where you can paste your song lyrics and describe a mood and a setting for the visuals you to generate. That’s all it takes. These inputs help steer the visuals in the right direction, whether that’s dreamy city lights, a warm sunset, or something more intimate.
Based on your lyrics, ChatGPT will generate a set of short scene descriptions. Each one captures a different moment or feeling from the song, with a focus on atmosphere rather than people. The goal is to create a sequence of scenes that feel connected without becoming repetitive, using light, movement, space, and reflections to tell the story of the song.
After pasting your lyrics, click "Copy Prompt" and proceed to your ChatGPT. Paste the prompt there and witness how it crafts vivid descriptions that perfectly mirror your song.
Step 3: Transform each scene into an image
Once you have your scene descriptions, you can start turning them into visuals. The easiest way is to generate images one scene at a time. Paste a scene into ChatGPT, generate an image, save the ones you like, and move on to the next.
Doing it this way gives you more control and works well even if you’re on a free plan. Some scenes might work better as wide shots, others as close-up details or abstract city views, that variety is exactly what makes the final video feel alive.
When you’re done, you’ll have a small set of visuals that match the rhythm and emotion of your song. In the next step, you’ll mix these with your own photos to build the slideshow.
Armed with your prompts, go back to ChatGPT and use them to generate your visuals.

Step 4: Combine AI visuals with your photos to create your card’s background
Now it’s time to bring everything together in Videobolt. Start by opening the Romantic Journey template and jump into the editor. In the Media section, you’ll see a set of placeholders ready to be filled.
Add the AI-generated visuals from the previous step, then mix in your own photos as well. Alternating between scenic visuals and real moments works especially well, since it keeps the video personal while adding visual depth and flow.
Once everything feels right, export the video. This render will become the visual background for your love song in the final step.

Step 5: Perfectly sync your lyrics with an SRT file
The next thing you need to assemble your valentines masterpiece is an SRT file. The role of this file is to make sure that each lyric appears on screen precisely when it's meant to. If you don't have one, Videobolt's intuitive Lyric Editor is here to help. It only took us minutes to generate an SRT file for our chosen song, establishing the basis for a lyric video that offers a perfect visual experience in sync with each lyric's timing.
Step 6: Assemble your Valentines card
Now it’s time to combine all the elements you’ve prepared and assemble your own valentines card. Go to Videobolt, select the Blurry Lyrics template, and infuse it with your personal flair. Upload all your assets in the Media section. Begin by integrating your music and the SRT file you've created into the designated placeholders in the Song section. Then, enhance it further by adding the video you've produced in Step 4 into the background slot. Don’t worry if your song is longer than your video background, the background will loop seamlessly for the duration of your song's playtime. This is where every piece comes together, culminating in a beautiful and heartfelt valentines video card.
Step 7: Personalize with finishing touches
In the final step, take a moment to fine-tune the details. In the Customize section, you can adjust things like font style and size, and explore subtle effects such as opacity or motion blur. These small changes can make a big difference, especially when paired with music and visuals.
This is your chance to add the personal touches that make the card feel truly yours. Once everything looks and feels right, export the video and get ready to share it with your significant other.
Voilà! You've brilliantly utilized AI to capture the spirit of your love song and assembled a love-filled valentines card that's bound to touch hearts.
