Welcome to Blue Monday which is hosted by Smiling Sally. If you’d like to join in head over to her blog.
Today I’m showing you some antique Valentine Postcards that Dear’s Great, great Aunt Emma received in 1909, 1910, 1913 and 1915!
Dear’s Aunt really enjoyed Postcards so her loved ones made sure to send them for many special occasions.
Sending Happy Valentine Greetings to all my Bloggy friends…
Now click on over to Smiling Sally’s to see some more blue.
Photobucket is holding all my photos I stored with them from 2007-2015 hostage unless I pay them a lot of money. I’m slowly cleaning up many posts from this time period and deleting their ugly grey and black boxes with a ransom request. Such a time consuming bother.
Very pretty blue valentines! Happy Blue Monday!

Wow…what a neat collection. I also browsed down for the metamorphosis as well. That is quite the change. What a lot of work went into that project…and you say there are more projects?!
How very lovely these are, Ellen! I just love these old fashioned Valentines. The ones now can’t hold a candle to them! Beautiful details and sentiments both. Thank you for sharing these with us. I’m so happy Dear’s aunt let them to you!
Happy Blue Monday…

They are just gorgeous – post cards in days gone by where far more colourful and meaningful. Judith
I’m in awe! These postcards are not only beautiful .. but the heart behind the words seem so genuine!

It’s interesting to note that the blue flower banners are in three of the postcards. I wonder if the same artist did them? Thanks for sharing. Happy Blue Monday.
