Vintage Handmade Valentine's Day Cards

What I have here is old vintage and discarded greeting cards that I am bringing back to life. I have found vintage cards that were made in the 1930-1950's that were already used. I then cut out the part that has been used and discard it, keeping the precious artwork and graphics of these amazing cards. I then mount them on nice card stock and glittered them, or what I like to call it "bedazzle them".

I add an envelope and a cello envelope cover and shazam, a new card is born. The cards are blank on the inside, so you can write whatever you wish. They have turned out amazing and I think you will really like them. It's hard to catch the light to see the glittering, but trust me, they have been bedazzled. Because these are one-of-a-kind cards, everyone will be a little different. There is sometimes flocking, ribbons, moving parts, embossed and risen parts. The vintage cards of yesteryear really are superior to the cards of today.

Every card that comes across my desk, I look at carefully and love back to be usable today. I'm up-cycling so to speak. These cards vary in size a little, but all the envelopes are 5 x 7. This set of 4 vintage Valentines cards have sweetheart messages on them that have been "bedazzled". Please see my other sets also. They are all unique and one of a kind. Thanks so much, I love doing this!
