Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day

Pop on over to Joan's at Anything Goes for her Vintage Valentine Card Party.

To see the rest of my vintage Valentine Decor look here.

I prefer kid Valentine's like we exchanged at school when I was a kid. 

Remember decorating your box? 
Getting a card for that boy?  Swoon
Getting a card from that other boy?  Hurl
Going home with a Fruit Punch mustache?
Red sugar on your blouse?
Saving your Valentine themed napkin?
Wearing your red and white yarn doodles?

I have a bunch of vintage Valentine Cards that I bought at a yard sale (The "Sale of Sale" for those of you long time readers) for 25¢.  They had belonged to a teacher and was all the extras she did not use for her class plus all the "To Teacher" cards, because she didn't have a use for those since she was Teacher.

Here are a few of my Favorites:



"Oh Daddio!  We'll raise a Hullaballo!" 
Whatever that means!
Love those kids! 
Bouncy!
"Snow Kidding!"  This one is cute!
"Say You'll Never Wash me out!"
He is one "Hep Cat!"
I have a bunch of old Disney Cards. 
And, these are Dam Trolls from the 1960's. 
Love this sweet 1940's card, a gift from my friend Heidi.
An an old "To My Wife" Card complete with glitter and roses.
To: Margaret. 
All My Love, Harold.

So, to Harold and Margaret and all of you I say,

Happy Valentine's Day!

  12. Valentines sure were the home of the pun... it took a particular kind of writing skill to do them.

    They are so funny! Thanks for taking part in the Vintage Valentine Card Party! xo Joan, your hostess
