Dear [Colleague's Name],
Happy Valentine's Day! I hope this message finds you well and enjoying a pleasant day.
While Valentine's Day is often associated with romantic relationships, I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge the wonderful working relationship we share. Your [mention a specific positive quality, e.g., dedication, insightful contributions, positive attitude] is truly appreciated, and it makes coming to work each day more enjoyable.
I especially value [mention a specific instance of collaboration or helpfulness, e.g., your help on the recent X project, your insightful comments during the Y meeting, your willingness to always lend a hand]. Your expertise and collaborative spirit are invaluable assets to our team.
Thank you for being such a great colleague. I wish you a happy and relaxing Valentine's Day, and I look forward to continuing our productive and pleasant collaboration in the months to come.

Optional additions (depending on your relationship with the colleague):
- You could add a lighthearted comment relevant to your workplace or a shared inside joke. Keep it professional and appropriate, of course.
- If you're sharing a small treat or gift, mention it briefly. For example: "I've left a small Valentine's treat on your desk – hope you enjoy it!"
- If you want to make the note slightly more personal (but still professional), you could mention something specific you admire about your colleague's approach to work or a shared professional goal.
Important Note: Always maintain professionalism in workplace communications. While a friendly Valentine's message is acceptable, avoid anything overly personal or romantic. This letter provides a template; adapt it to your specific relationship and workplace culture.
