Vintage Valentine Cards

With Valentine's Day approaching I find myself getting excited about the CARDS!

Silly I know,

but it just brings out the kid in me.

I remember the excitement of preparing cards for my friends and passing them out. 
The bright colors and cheerful sayings were always such fun.

These days I enjoy collecting them.

It's a  small collection that seems to grow a little each year. 
Each new cherished find brings a smile to my face.

Here are a few of my favorites from last year.






This one is my all time favorite.


Doesn't she just make you smile!

Now if you haven't hear A Very Merry Vintage Style is having a party. 
You can show off your favorite Valentine Cards and images so head on over and join in the fun.

  16. I regret not keeping some of mine. When you are young things like this are not on your mind. I looked forward to going to school and seeing how many cards I would get. Fun times.
