Sugarwings and I decided to have a party. We are making cupcakes and inviting Pixie Pie, Clover, and a bunch of her other besties to make Valentine cards.
So, I have been busy scanning some old Valentines from my stash. I'm printing up stacks of them for the kids to cut up and glue.
These are straight from my scanner, no editing. Not the prettiest way to present them, but I thought I'd share them with you as is.
All you need to do, is click on the image, it will pop up in a larger pixel window for you to save it to your computer to print and use.
My recommendation is to print them onto matt photo paper. It has a much nicer look than just copy paper.
PS- Bottom's Up is this weekend if you are in the KC area!!!
Many thanks!!! I am jealous that they love (or will use) vintage -- my 11 yr old has made it very clear that she does not like my 'old stuff' .. hahah thanks again and happy valentining!

At this point, Sugarwings is always desperate to get her hands on anything of mine in the studio! I hope she learns to love the old stuff for how cool it is, not just because its mine.

Thank you, Karla! ^.^ These older images are so Pretty! And, it sounds like you and Sugarwings are going to have a wonderful party sharing and creating! I'm sure Sugarwings will come to appreciate and delight in the beauty of the older stuff. And, too, she has you to teach her the wonder of it all and guide her along. The joy and the love of old is 'catching'! *wink*

Thanks for the images Karla. Lily is coming around to the 'vintage' side but I think she still favors Dora or anything else from Target vs garage sales.
