Craft elaborate greeting cards inspired by the vintage originals, which often used pop-up techniques, fancy pierced paper designs, foil, feathers, velvet, tassels and more for maximum effect. Whether gaudy or subdued, you can come away with a few cards and ideas for more, just in time for Valentine’s Day!

Leslie Robinson has been crafty ever since she was a little girl, growing up in rural Illinois. She comes from a line of un-traditionally traditional creative types and has always been passionate about history and the arts. After graduating from University twenty years ago, she packed up a U-Haul and moved... to Los Angeles. Inspired by the weather and the vibrant visual feast that is L.A., Santa Monica and Hollywood, she has continued to create under two guises: Hooray4lala (hooray4lala.blogspot.com) and Flapper Femme (flapperfemme.com).
