Vintage Valentines

Oh, how yummy! Nancie Rowe Janitz put in her shop today these GORGEOUS Vintage Valentines. She thinks they are from the 1920's.

They are absolutely gorgeous printed out to make your own vintage valentines, but I had this idea for a fun little page. It's kind of cheesy, but I had fun.


In case you can't read them, the 5 sweet words on the red heart say, "Won't You Be My Valentine?"

No Place Like Home

Yippee! While Kristen Aagard is guesting at CatScrap (where she's staying through February!!), she and Kristen Rice did another collab! I'd like to introduce you to Love Lives Here. It is soooo full of wonderful things!!

Here is the page I made with it.



Journaling reads: There's no place like home... There's no place like home... There's no place like home...
I loved "The Wizard of Oz" growing up. We'd watch it at least once a year. But I never realized just how true that phrase was until well into adulthood. Home is the place I would rather be, more than anywhere else. Traveling is fun, visiting friends and family is fun, but I can never wait to get back home! My home is where I eat and sleep. It's where I create and work. It's the only home 3 of my kids have known. It's where I've nursed babies, and kissed boo-boos. It's where I've changed diapers and rocked babies to sleep. It's where I make food to feed my family, and where we prefer to eat. It's where we garden and raise our chickens. It's where we cut wood, and stack it for winter warmth. It's where we preserve food, and store it for later. It's where our children have played, in mud and in snow. Where they swing and play tag, and just run around. It's where they have learned to chores, and care for animals. It's where they have learned the value of hard work, and the incredible joy of getting work finished. It's where I hope my children have learned lessons that will carry them through the rest of their lives. It's where I always want to be. Home.
