Vintage Valentine's

Good morning crafty peeps!  I'm popping in to share some vintage Valentine cards I made for my group of crafty friends who also like vintagey things.  

I've had these leftover scraps from Graphic 45 for quite some time.  I thought it was finally time to put them to use.

I also had lots of off-cuts leftover from other projects, leaving me with scraps of paper that weren't big enough to use on their own on a card.  

Once I lined the strips up and die cut them, they made great backgrounds.


I was happy to use up many scraps making these cards.

I hope you're feeling inspired to use up some of your scraps, if you have them.

Here's one more ornament I made this year to add to my Valentine's collection.
I used a heart shaped paper doily from the Dollar Tree and made this little chenille paper doll, using a face I found online and printed on my home printer.  Her red polka dotted skirt is a cupcake liner from my baking cupboard.

Her arms and legs are made using the bumpy chenille sticks.  I also used one on her head as a fur trimmed hat.  I added a tiny little posy flower.  So cute!

The "I Love You" banner is from Hobby Lobby.

That about wraps up my Valentine's decorations.  I hope you've enjoyed these posts and are inspired to create something out of the ordinary.

Thanks for stopping by!
