Homemade Vintage Valentines Cards Project

Hi Friends,
I have been wanting to do this project for a long time.



I actually have a day off today so I'm going to make Valentines free printable bottle label and cupcake toppers free Vintage Valentine prints

Using red construction paper I cut out heart shapes with my Fiskars paper edgers


cut out the vintage valentine prints and glued them to the hearts.
I decided to add glitter pipe cleaners/chenille stems from Dollar Tree gluing around the picture, I tea stained a roll of white crepe streamer and glued around edge of the construction paper heart




using markers I added some more writing and outline some of the hearts



more free prints from vintage kids valentines cards
I cut out the prints and glued them on some colored card stock I had.  Using a sharpie I went around the hearts to highlight.


I also tea stained a couple of pages from a paper back book I no longer need to cut out little hearts and to make little roses I saw this technique from Tracy at Country Charm by Tracy making roses from crepe paper. 


Here is the finished project


I think they turned out so adorable and I really had fun making these vintage print valentines to give to friends and family.  Let me know which were your favorite. 

Thanks for stopping by and until the next celebration.  

Have a Great Day!

Vintage Decor for February

Hi, and thanks for stopping by.... 

  Today is February first and I'm making a list of important things going on this month.

Activity List for February

  • My birthday month
  • Valentines Day
  • February décor
  • Valentine Day Cookies
  • New Valentine Décor Projects
I also thought I would show some of my past seasonal decorations I have stored in tubs for February.

I always have eucalyptus stem in my décor through out winter.  I also keep out the red candles from Christmas.

In this little vignette I have grouped some white pip berries and red and green eucalyptus stem together with two vintage post cards into one of my vintage cigar box on my entry way table.


This shelf is a substitute for a fireplace mantel which I do not have. I have place old bottles filled red seeds, several red hearts of varies sizes an old rusty can, white pip berries, old books and a Vintage Star Tobacco box.


On the table under the red shelf I have a small collection of vintage cigar boxes I have collected over the years. The red felt heart bowl filler is a sewing project I started this month.

The banner is another project I made this month.  I used red ribbon and red felt hearts trimmed in glitter and made copies of my vintage post cards to add to the banner.


What’s on your list for February? Until next time may

God Bless you and your Family,
