This vintage Valentine is one I found last year, and I love it both because you can stand it up (you'll note the little folding tabs on the base) and because it's "mechanical," which means there is a brad attached so the sweet lass can swing her teapot from cup to cup. So much thought went into these great old designs!
And this one was a girlfriend-to-girlfriend Valentine, from "Ann S." to "Sharon McEwen." I wonder if this was exchanged at a classroom Valentine's party?
My Valentine to one of you today is going to be a copy of this fun Leisure Arts book called "The Creative Kitchen," which offers ideas for more than 100 food gifts to make and give.
Among the many great ideas in this book, I think this Spiced Cranberry Tea Mix looks like a particularly fine idea, don't you? If you'd like to be entered to win, just leave an "Enter me" to this post between now and 7 a.m. EST tomorrow. Good luck!
