Some of My Vintage Childhood Birthday Cards

June 20, 2013
It's my birthday today, so I am reminiscing with some of my old birthday cards.  The cards are sweet and innocent, so like the 1950's.

This one is a Forget Me Not from neighbors.



This one is a postcard from my church.


This one is a Fairfield from my Mom, Dad and brother.


This one is a Hallmark from my aunt, uncle and cousins.


This one is a Gibson from my Great Grandma.


This is the front and back of a Fairfield card from an aunt.


This is a Gibson with a pom pom tail from my Great Grandma.

No big plans for today, but I will be going for a visit to see my kids and grandkids this weekend!



Thanks for reading my blog, Carlene

    Carlene, I love these vintage cards! I don't have a single card from my childhood, so it is especially fun to see yours. Thanks for sharing them!

    I love those cards, especially the second one, it's so cute!
    Happy Birthday Carlene! (here in Argentina your day is a holiday because it's our Flag's day, and BTW, my niece's birthday too).
    Besos! Silvina

    Good Afternoon Carlene, Happy Birthday to you, have a wonderful day.
    The cards you have shown us are so lovely and so innocent, so very different to the cards of today.
    It was lovely looking at them and remembering back to my own childhood.
    Best Wishes
