Vintage Valentines Day Cards

I adore the artwork and unbearably cute puns on Vintage Valentines- Hallmark has NOTHING on these vintage finds! I wish these were still popular instead of the generic "kids cartoon valentines" where everyone shows up with the exact same ones. Although I do have a fond first grade memory of not so subtly making sure that the largest of my Beauty and The Beast Valentines went to my very first crush...
Here are a few favorites:

"Gosh Valentine- I think of you "Knight" and Day!"

"Hello Sugar, You "Bowl" me Over" (get it, she's in a bowl!)

Terriers always get a mention in my favorites lists! This is a beautiful and simple valentines card. 

Wait... Is she serving human hearts for Valentines Day? 

This one kind of creeps me out, she's staring a bit intensely- I suppose they are to be bedroom eyes. 

Apparently there is an English/Celtic tradition where the bride is to wear a horse shoe around her wrist for good luck. 

The kid on this card knows this pick up line is so corny, even he is rolling his eyes. 

Maybe I should suggest some of these to my single friends, they're so bad, they might be good!

Here's what we pinned last month:

A little thought allows this ugly dresser to become a custom TV Stand! Visit twotwentyone.net for how she did it

I've been eyeing industrial style things lately- I think this style works best when you incorporate warmth and coziness with it for some contrast- I think these lights and planter would look great in the space below (via paperblog.com and thecreatedhome.blogspot.com)

Utilizing Vertical space can free up limited counter space- I'm on the hunt for a stand like this for my vanity
