Pink Saturday and Vintage Valentine Party



Welcome to a special Pink Saturday hosted by Beverly at How Sweet the Sound and a Vintage Valentine Card Party hosted by Joan at Anything Goes Here. For our Pink Saturday celebration we have a slight departure from posting "pink" only, and we can post anything related to Valentine's Day.

My first photo is of a darling vintage Valentine card that I purchased at a flea market. This little girl has white netting as part of her cute bow.
Here is a vintage pink Valentine card with a dark-haired beauty.

Two happy and cute sweethearts share Valentine's day with hearts and roses.

So coy and cute.

A vintage 1947 Valentine card from my father to my mother.

A pink and pretty vintage Valentine card for my dad from my mom in 1946.

Apparently I gave this vintage Valentine card to my father in 1949 when I wasn't even a year old yet!

A vintage card from my parents.

A special Valentine card from my precious grandson.

They just don't make cards like this anymore!

Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Valentine's Day sweetie...
I so love this post. My goodness you have some of the most beautiful vintage Valentine's that I have ever seen. I can't decide which one I love the most. I think it is the Daddy one with the little girl talking to her dolly. Yep, I love that one most. I always look for one that touches my heart you know?

What a beautiful post, and thank you so much for sharing with me today.

I so wish you had a follower button so that I could follow and pop over here when you posted. I love coming, but don't have a way to know when you post.

Country hugs and kisses sweetie. Please be my Valentine. Sherry

You are so right ~ They just don't make 'em like they used to and how sad ~ the coloring, the innocence and charm. You have some real beauties and I enjoyed visiting. Happy Valentine's Day! Judi
