The love we give away is the only love we keep. 
The only way to retain love is to give it away.

How will you be showing your love this Valentines Day?

Like a box of Valentines Chocolates, 
today's post is a mixed collection of sweet treats for you:
  • Three Vintage Valentine Card print-cut-and fold PDFs 
  • A Treat Box Template
  • Valentine Cupcake Topper PDF
  • From my personal archives, I've pulled some charming Valentine postcards for you to use in collage, decoupage, scrapbooking, card-making, etc.

To make this 3D Valentine Card, download it HERE and print on cardstock.


To download and print these cute retro Valentines, click HERE.


To make these Valentine Treat Boxes, download this template.  Print it out "as-is" for a pink box, or print, cut and use as a pattern on your own special paper.  You can trace four boxes on a single sheet of scrapbook stock. Embellish with vintage ephemera, ribbons, and glitter and finish with a pipe cleaner handle.  


Make these lovely little cupcake picks by downloading HERE.
Print on cardstock, cut, glue to a toothpick, then back with a paper rosette.  
For the rosettes you'll need 5.75" x 1.5" strips of paper.  For instructions on how to make paper rosettes visit this TUTORIAL from Paper Source. 


Lastly, here are some Valentine's postcard images from my collection:

So adorable, thank you for sharing! Now I have an excuse to get a new printer (old one died a horrible death a couple months ago).

I love your site, and that Rook card in the header. My parents used to play Rook all the time. I haven't seen Rook cards in so long!
