Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with a touch of timeless charm and a fun activity for the whole family? This year, I am making it easy and beautiful with two free printable sheets of vintage-inspired Valentine’s Day cards featuring the adorable Flower Children from Elizabeth Gordon’s beloved 1910 book.
A Nod to Nostalgia
Do you remember those sweet, whimsical illustrations from classic children’s books? Elizabeth Gordon’s “Flower Children” are truly enchanting, bringing to life the personified spirits of various flowers. Each of these 16 unique Valentine’s cards (8 per sheet!) showcases one of these delightful characters, perfect for adding a touch of antique elegance to your celebrations.
These illustrations are sourced from the 1910 classic ‘Flower Children: The Little Cousins of the Field and Garden,‘ bringing over a century of charm to your Valentine’s exchange. If you would like to read the book and show your children, I think you will find it delightful. Just click on the link and it will take you to a free high quality version on Archive.org.

I’ve designed these Valentines with kids in mind. Each card includes a “From:” and “To:” line with space for your child to practice their handwriting and personalize each message for their friends, classmates, or Sunday school buddies. It’s a wonderful way to encourage creativity and the joy of giving.
