Card making used to be such a craft, now it’s been reduced to crap save for the artisans. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful example of yesteryear.
Beautiful photos! Old valentines are collectible I would think and make sweet decorations at this holiday. I’m so sappy about Valentines Day. I bet you are busy w/ your boys advising them on girl stuff?

Those cards are wonderful! Cutout cards are so hard to make. I’m glad you kept them all this time! Happy WW!

A couple weeks at an antiques sale, we stumbled upon a treasure trove of old victorian valentines, calling cards, passports, etc – SO cool!

I love those old fashioned cards! I keep my old cards too, especially the ones from people I care about.
Happy WW and Happy Valentine’s Day!

No love interest in the older one yet… I’m still just buying valentines for them, and trying to model sweet behavior!
Now, Batman, he’s got quite a few love interests. Lots of valentine sharing going on there.
