Free Vintage St Patrick’s Day Clip Art

Holiday Crafts — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 10:19:33 +0000

‘Tis the time for the wearin’ of the green again: St. Patrick’s Day. One day a year we’re all Irish, or at least that’s the case for those of us who want to get in on the fun. The free St. Patrick’s Day vintage clip art below is great for giving an appropriately old fashioned feel to this thousands-year-old holiday that commemorates the death of Saint Patrick in the fifth century.

St. Patrick’s Day was originally a religious holiday, but as any schoolchild knows, it’s now a day to wear green to keep from being pinched. And as the adults know, it’s also an occasion that gives us permission to drink lots of green beer and have a good time. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Free Vintage Kids Valentine Cards

Holiday Crafts — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 14:33:25 +0000

I absolutely love these colorful vintage kids Valentine cards. They come from different eras but seem to be mostly from the mid-20th century.

Some of the expressions on these cards aren’t heard much these days. An example is the sock saying “‘Darn’ it.” People still say “darn it,” of course, just not in reference to sewing up holes in their socks. I’m sure many of the crafters who visit this site will know what darning is, but how many people actually darn their socks any more? Arcane references like that are part of what makes these cards charming. Also cute is the fact that the people who created these kids valentine cards had no fear of being corny, because the designs were aimed at children. So this is your opportunity to be as corny as you want this Valentine’s Day; just blame it on the art.

Free Vintage New Year Cards

Holiday Crafts — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 23:59:51 +0000

Can you believe that it’s almost time for another new year? No matter how you might feel about the swift passage of time (at least it seems incredibly swift to me), you’ve got to love these vintage New Year cards. Unlike vintage Christmas cards, which have pretty predictable themes; the subjects portrayed on these New Year’s cards vary widely. In addition to the expected champagne, clocks, and good-luck four-leaf clovers and horseshoes; there are cats, angels, pansies, birds, country scenes, blue Delft tiles and even an elf or two.

I hope you enjoy these vintage New Year cards and that they brighten up your transition to the new year!

As promised in my previous post, here are some extra-jolly vintage Santa Christmas cards from the mid-twentieth century. These started out life as kids Christmas cards, but now they also make great clip art or holiday gift tags. And the patriotic Uncle Sam Santa could be a great card or gift tag to send to a loved one in the military this Christmas.
