Trading Cards!

I have started to receive Valentines from the ladies I am swapping with!

The first one to arrive was a Valentine from Laura and Michele who blog at My Vintage Bettys

It's a darling felt Valentine...I love felt, and I love bikes and trikes!! And how about those eyes???

The second Valentine arrived from Elizabeth  who blogs at Creative Breathing


This cute little guy is rocketing his way to his Valentine! He too has amazing eyes!! 

What is it about vintage Valentines that make me swoon? I love sorting through them, and I especially love the ones that are signed and dated!

I was able to spend most of the weekend working on the Valentines I'm sending out.....



I also worked on and finished, (insert a big yahoo here) my candy box for the Valentine Candy Box Swap, hosted by Erica who blogs at Golden Egg Vintage. I will share pictures later, I want it to be a surprise for my swap partner!

  12. Your wreath sure is cute! Love your valentines and what you've gotten so far. I think I better get my Valentine's Day decor out. (Ummm....I might have to finish putting away Christmas first. Sad, but true this year.)
