Handmade Valentines/ Lace Doilies

What delightful little cards!  And, Avie Designs has wonderful (flawlessly specific) DIY instructions for them!  While they're completely appropriate as valentines, they would also make darling thank you cards.  Or, if you made them super-mini, they'd be perfect as gift tags.

My baby sissy has made me pretty paper doily valentines for the past few years.  I love them all, they're up on my pin-board and refrigerator year round!  I'm a huge sucker for lace, so their pretty punch texture pulls me in like a magnet.  There's also something charming and nostalgic about them, no matter how simple and rustic or elegant and ornate.  They all sing of young, innocent adoration and pure, unceasing devotion.
