Last Crop of Valentines


So I'm a little bummed because I found these valentines on etsy over a week ago, but due to internet issues, didn't get to post them until now, and they have since been posted on design*sponge. Don't get me wrong, d*s is fantastic and Grace has amazing taste, and is a superb and dedicated blogger (far beyond the quality of my own blogging skills), but it just takes a little out of the novelty of my own post on these cards. I thought about not posting them since I had been beat to it, but they're just too beautiful, and they are some of my favorites of the ones I have seen on etsy. They all come from etsy seller studioepaper, and are parts of two different sets. These first 3 are from the 3 Victorian Inspired Letterpressed Gift Cards set that is available for $8.50. All three cards are gorgeous but my favorite is the first with the blue flowers. I love the way the two patterns overlap. Hopefully is you like these cards you will still have time to get them and give them before Valentine's Day.



The next two cards are from the Set of 3 Old Hollywood Letterpressed Valentine Gift Cards. I love twenties-style illustrations in general (anyone remember that piece of tissue I got from Mint Julep and put up on my wall poster style last year?) and printed on top of the over sized florals they are just exquisite. Of course I especially like the "be my dah-ling" inscription, since it's a little more creative than just "be mine".

Let me tell you, with all your posting of cool cards it was quite a challenge to actually find a card to send to you. You're lucky I'm creative and determined (and hate Hallmark)
